[Phil Bennett]
Adjusted ym2203 clock speed and added XTAL for goindol.c based on a
reference video recording. [Tafoid, Rogerio]
Rewrote ics2115 sound core using modern device standards, improving
audio in Oriental Legend, Killing Blade and other PGM titles in the

wraparound for horizontal area smaller than 320, fixing left-border
sprites in Legionnaire and Heated Barrel [David Haywood]

sprite-sprite priorities in Seibu Cup Soccer [Angelo Salese]
z80dart.c: [Wilbert Pol]
* The channel B modified interrupt vector can be read immediately
after setting it.
* Reading from a read register other than 0 also masks out the
register index.
Fixed RAM fill in Seibu DMA COP command 0x116, allowing Godzilla to
boot [Angelo Salese]
Neo-Geo updates [Johnboy]:
* burningfh - Renamed p1 to hp1
* gowcaizr - Added correct C8 ROM
* 8man - Tagged MVS and AES version
* jockeygpa - Added alternate jockeygp set
* mslug5h - Corrected chip labels
Hooked up cocktail mode and proper controls for both players in Maze
Invaders, adding button labels to describe the action of each.
[sxevious, Tafoid]
Fixed LDM opcode register writeback in ARM CPU core [Tim Schuerewegen]
General stability issues with 64-bit builds fixed for cybertnk.c
[David Haywood]
Implemented palette DMA brightness algorythm mode 5 in Seibu COP
games, used by Seibu Cup Soccer, Godzilla, SD Gundam Rainbow Tairiku
Senki and Legionnaire for fading effects [Angelo Salese]
hvyunit.c: Hooked up Mermaid protection MCU and removed obsolete
simulation code. Also updated the driver to use a state class.
[Phil Bennett, Dr. Decapitator, Andrew Gardner]
Implemented preliminary road emulation in Cyber Tank [David Haywood]
Renamed ilpag.c as blitz68k.c and added several games to the driver
[Luca Elia]
sdlmame now also looks for fonts in "-fontpath". In addition, moved
font config stuff into function search_font_config. This is in
preparation to add ttf support to windows sdlmame build. [couriersud]
Fixed an ARM CPU core bug with pre-indexed addressing opcodes, that
was preventing Poizone to boot [Tim Schuerewegen]
Fix most-likely-to-fail SDL_TTF version check. Added a warning if
strikethrough is specified but not supported. [Couriersud]
Reimplemented scatter-gather Sprite DMA in Seibu COP used by SD Gundam
Rainbow Tairiku Senki, also improving the functionality in it.
[Angelo Salese]
Greatly improved inputs and dip switches for ertictac.c [Tafoid]
Fixed playfield color issues in Seibu Cup Soccer [David Haywood]
Fixed *BSD compilation for SDLMAME. [ElBarto]
Fixed sfx in Chouji Meikyuu Legion [Tomasz Slanina]

Zero Team behaviour [O.Galibert]
plygonet.c : Fixed save state & device handler regressions.
[Andrew Gardner]
Golden Poker driver: Added new sets, and some notes about ipc-1
daughterboard encryption [Roberto Fresca]
Preliminary simulation of text layer protection in Chouji Meikyuu
Legion [Tomasz Slanina]
Further ICS2115 work [austere, nimitz, trap15]

[James Wallace]
Adds the recent 87C52 MCU decaps to Wonder League Star and Wonder
League '96 [Dr. Decapitator]
superchs.c - Moved Button 6 assignment to a DIP selection which is
more appropriate for "Freeze Screen" behavior and added some missing
port names. [Tafoid]
Updated the RSP and RDP implementations to be largely bit-perfect and
pixel-accurate. [angrylion, Harmony]
Fixed alpha compare in the N64 RDP implementation. [Harmony]
More Golden Poker driver cleanup. Added more references and
reorganized some parent-clone relationship. Added some new sets.
[Roberto Fresca]
Implemented Seibu COP macro 0x905, used for ark movements in
Legionnaire / Zero Team when a knock down occurs [Angelo Salese]
ARM7+ updates: [Tim Schuerewegen]
* Enhanced MMU with page fault support
* Preliminary 26-bit mode support
* Fixed bugs with S-flag operations on R15
* Fixed STRH involving R15
* Support for ARM models 7500 and 920T.
Add directxor parameter to direct memory accessors. Update all callers
that manually XORed addresses to pass the XOR instead. This improves
behavior when direct accessors hit non-RAM regions, or when watchpoints
are used, because we now know the original, un-xored address and can
fall back to standard read/write handlers properly. Also fixes
glitched disassembly when read watchpoints are enabled. [Aaron Giles]
s3c24xx: some improvements and fixes [Tim Schuerewegen]
Removed public decodechar function. [Aaron Giles]
Fixed writes in the MIPS III interpreter. [MooglyGuy]
Some bulk naming cleanups across the whole source base: [Aaron Giles]
1. MDRV_* -> MCFG_*
2. running_device -> device_t
3. mame_rand() -> machine->rand()
4. memory_region() -> machine->region()->base()
5. memory_region_length() -> machine->region()->bytes()
6. region_info -> memory_region
