Quite possible as I obtained the schematics only with an ohmeter...

I spent some time again with my ohmeter, here is the schematics for this part:
http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Philo/RCX-comp/motor_cmd.gif
This is the motor driver control circuitry, data is latched when there is a
write to address x111 xxxx xxxx xxxx (binary). As I think H8 is used in mode 2,
A15 is always 1 for external access, so any write to fxxx should write to motor
driver latches. In the schematics, OUT_X_1 and OUT_X_2 are connected to Melexis
motor drivers in1 and in2.

Probably, yes ;o)
