Subject: DIFF: vertical.ini & horizont.ini
This simple 4 line change (5 if you count the comment) to mame.c adds the
ability to parse vertical.ini and/or horizont.ini files.
I wanted this functionality so that I could specify different resolution
and artwork options for all vertical games in one shot.
I had a MAMEUI user ask that I submit this code to baseline MAME so that
it could be included in MAMEUI GUI without making changes to the core
codebase.
I chose to shorten "horizontal" to "horizont" to make sure that the
ini file falls within 8.3 filename guidelines.
thanks for your consideration

Subject: Compilation fix for ARM7 core
This fixes the compilation with ARM7_DEBUG_CORE. It was actually
found by Reijo Tomperi from the cppcheck team after I issued a bug
report.

Cherry Bonus III (alt) [David Haywood]
New non-working
---------------
Super Cherry Master / New Cherry Gold '99 [David Haywood]
Super Cherry Master / Super Cherry Gold [David Haywood]
Super Cherry Master / Grand Cherry Master [David Haywood]
Updated polepos and bosco drivers to use the new 52xx sound
emulation, wiring up the output through the discrete mixer that
Derrick had already plumbed but left disabled.
This required several MB88xx changes/fixes:
- internal timer support now works; prescaler is guessed based
on Pole Position sample playback frequency
- external counter support works
- a basic mechanism for reading serial input has been added; it
is not sufficient for a full implementation, but good enough
to sample the SI pin at startup
- fixed TSTS/TSTV to clear their respective flags
- fixed CI and CYI to compute imm-reg instead of reg-imm
- added masking of the PA register upon RTI/RTS to prevent bogus
PC values
the information needed to connect to the CPU and other devices
specified in the definition.
Updated drivers to use this new device.
(I notice that the bosco shoot sound no longer changes pitch during
another explosion. Not sure if this was fixed prior or if the
recent device-ification cleaned something up....)

Aqua Jet (Rev. AJ2 Ver.B)
Game is now fully playable - I was able to finish a race and everything.
OG take note - the test mode is *very* extensive now that it's navigable.
Look under "OTHERS".
Converted Namco 51xx and 53xx into proper devices. The MB84xx is not
yet emulated, but is now present.
Converted 51xx and 53xx interfaces to use the devcb system for
port I/O callbacks.
Dig Dug is known to be somewhat broken at the moment.
Extended the Namco 60xx and namcoio_init() interfaces to accept
a device name string in addition to an interface struct, until
all the interfaces are replaced with devices.
Added DERIVED_CLOCK() macro which can be used by sub-devices to
derive their clock from the parent device.
Tweaked some of the laserdisc interfaces to use ROM_NAME() and
MACHINE_DRIVER_NAME() macros.
New games added or promoted from NOT_WORKING status

Forgotten Worlds (World) [Please added the right name]
Made the "World" set the new parent and the old parent, which is the US set, a clone.
