Question Pushing Neopan 1600 to 3200 - souping ideas

I was in Baltimore recently and shot a couple of rolls of Fuji Neopan 1600 @ 3200 using my Bessa. I realize many estimate the actual speed at between 640 and 800 but . . .

The lighting was flat (a bar).

I have four developer choices:

- D-76
- Rodinal
- Diafine
- HC-110

Of these four are any going to be useful for these shots?

If so, can anyone suggest some good dilution, time and agitations schemes?

If none of these will work, what would you suggest?

Thanks!

D-76 stock gives nice gritty look for pushed Neopan 1600.
In flat light I've been happy with results of Ilfotec DD-X. I've exposed Neopan at EI 4800 and processed in 1+4 dillution at slightly higher temperature to get shorter time. I've reduced agitation to 5 seconds per 2 minutes.
