I do that too-- I actually plug one double wipe socket in to the pod header,
then plug that in to a tall 40 pin wire-wrap socket, then plug the wire-wrap
socket in to another double wipe socket.  I have 20-pin 0.1" headers
soldered on to the wire-wrap socket pins at a 90 degree angle so that I can
hook on logic-analyzer probes or a multimeter or scope and keep the 9010 pod
in circuit easily.
