Source Changes
--------------
-removed runtime ioport tagmap lookup when using PORT_CONDITION with
 PORT_BIT, used by gmgalax for example [smf]

-Moved some of the saturn code from mame/ into emu/ and made saturn.c &
 stv.c separately compilable. Still needs work before saturn.c can be
 moved to mess/ [smf]

-upd1771.c: Further documentation updates based on the NEC APC
 technical manual; now all pin names except two are known.
 [Lord Nightmare]

-Modernized the MOS6526, MOS6560, MOS7360, MOS6581, CBM IEC, and
 IEEE-488 devices. [Curt Coder]

-mos6551: Added serial callbacks. [Curt Coder]

-fmtowns: Preliminary implementation of the CD-ROM controller's
 software mode.  Enough to get the CD-ROM working under Win95.
 [Barry Rodewald]

-Improved protection in Steep Slope Sliders [Angelo Salese]

 Saturn version. Fixes inputs in Find Love [Angelo Salese]

-split saturn and stv up a bit more so that stvprot.c is not linked
 into MESS [smf]

-split mame/drivers/saturn.c into emu/machine/saturn.c and
 mess/drivers/saturn.c, so mame doesn't have to compile and link the
 unused code. [smf]

-emuopts.c: Re-evaluate slot options after loading .ini files. 
 [Wilbert Pol]

 filtering. [Rob Braun]

 all cpu cores have been converted. [smf]

-cps1.c:  [Team CPS-1]
 * Documented several games which have roms that have one a 1-byte
    difference, now known to be confirmed good and simply an older
    revision.  Thanks goto Bonky0013, Kold666, Stefan Lindberg and
    others for the cooperation and board investigations.
 * Restored back the rom parts removed in previous updates because
    they needed to be documented and added the missing ones of the
    recently dumped 3wondersr1.

-cps1.c: improved operation of sf2m3, sf2m8, sgyxz [Robbbert]

-g65816.c: added missing mirror of the 5a22 regs [Fabio Priuli]

 and ROM boards. Correct sprite color prom based on photo of PCB.
 [Brian Troha]

 [R. Belmont]

-gunpey.c: [Angelo Salese, David Haywood]
 * Significant emulation improvements to the emulation bringing the
    game to a mostly playable state, albeit without decompression of
    the compressed graphics (scheme still not understood)

- deco_mlc.c: [David Haywood]
 * Rewrote video renderer to be scanline based, allowing for further
    progress on Stadium Hero '96 emulation (it became possible to
    implement raster interrupt scanline effects without crippling the
    performance)  The game is now mostly playable but there are some
    outstanding issues likely to be related to the protection.
