Subject: [patch] deprecat.h cpu cleanup
Hi mamedev,
This patch purges the last few uses of deprecat.h from the cpu cores,
plus a handful of other Machine cases elsewhere that were found by
script inspection.

Hi mamedev,
This patch eliminates most uses of deprecat.h in the sound cores by
attaching the device to the state object and using it where
appropriate. Given that all the cpu objects use this convention, and
three sound cores already do this, this seemed an appropriate
approach.

Subject: [patch] verboselog changes for future Machine removal
Hi mamedev,
Several mame files use an inline verboselog definition which saves
typing the cpuexec_describe_context repeatedly. While this is a nice
feature, each case introduces a then hard to remove deprecated Machine
variable. One way to fix this would be to add machine to the
parameter list for each verboselog call. Another way would be to
change them to include the context call explicitly inside a typical
logging macro (e.g. decocass.h). Not knowing which would be more
acceptable to mamedev, I've included patches for both.

(I chose to pass the machine to the verboselog function.)

Subject: Super High Impact (Prototype 6.0 9/23/91)
Most roms are labeled with LA1 stickers. U89 and 105 have small white square stickers stuck on top of what looks like LA1 stickers with "pro6" printed on them by a computer and are the only roms found to be different than ones in the LA1 revision. I added this as shimpap6 and changed the set name of the proto 5 version to shimpap5.
roms will be here temporarily when I can access it, it's currently down, I don't know what the issue is:
http://smitdogg.mameworld.info/random/shimpap6.zip
I'll e-mail the roms to Guru too. If anybody wants pics or anything else from it, let me know soon. I attached the diff.

Rom uploaded to current/p.
It would be good if somebody can check sound hookup - I have no speaker attached to PC in the work office.

Subject: forte2 driver
Hello,
Attached is a Forte II board driver for MAME.
u5_forte2_diff.zip is the diff to 0.128u5
forte2_csource.zip is the driver source, better viewing than the diff
pesadelo.zip is a game ROM for it

Oggetto: Status Trivai (From software this)
seems to be a vertical set of Triv Two. There were no question roms, so
I used the roms from our existing Triv Two set, they seem compatible
(not really surprising)
