WHY GENDER CHANGER WON'T WORK:
I thought about a gender changer until I noticed that the "key"
(blank spot, no pin connector) position was not in the center.

What I've done in the distant past was find a 44 pin header like this:

and just cram it into one of the connectors. If there's a keying pin,
I just remove it from the header. If the header is keyed, and the
missing pin ends up in the wrong slot, I just heat the connector, and
move the pin.
