Don't try to fight it, just get a Genesis.
There are only two compatibility issues, the cartridge shape, and the 2-bit region inputs. Cut the plastic of the Genesis lid if your Brasilian carts don't fit. Almost nothing used the region inputs to lock out games (I only know that Gaunlet 4 and the Sega CD BIOS care), so that shouldn't be a problem either.
Then set your Brasilian MD aside until you need it again for whatever reason.
Oh, and to top it off, 32X's have a 1-bit region ID of their own, a "US/EURO" 60/50Hz type setting, VERY confusing, and I believe Doom and Knuckles Chaotix use this.

The Brazilian MD is nothing more than a USA Genesis with the PAL-M output. So, considering that the screw holes on the main board are in the same positions I will not have any problem just switching the board.
