* Fixes 00251: spdcoin: Sound isn't perfect. There are many static pops to be heard, and volume is very low.
* superbon: Change name to Agent Super Bond and Manufacturer to "Signatron USA"
* superbon: Change year to 1985 following information on arcadeflyers.com
* added detection of MMU enablement in 403GCX case
* fixed bug in protection bounds violation detection for 4XX to get ppd
to the "ppc4xx_spu_rx_data unimplemented" message
* fixed conflicting layout (not super happy with the technique...)
x64 back-end:
* added a "hop" around the prolog of the HANDLE opcode to allow fall-through
x86 back-end:
* redesigned stack management to keep the stack at the same 16-byte alignment
PPC DRC:
* fixed parameter ordering for masked reads/writes

Head Panic (ver. 0117, 17/01/2000) [Brian Troha]
SWAT Police is marked as imperfect graphics. I don't think the roms are bad... The driver may need to updated to support the foreground or the foreground isn't correctly mapped
I made the new Head Panic set the parent even though it's older. Beacuse it's by ESD only and is all English.
Added notes about other ESD games and updates some general info
* Added VBLANK IRQ clear
* Added ATAPI IRQ clear
* Tried to add UART IRQ clear but it doesn't yet work
* Most of the games start to show something again with these changes
* Added fast RAM region
PPC DRC:
* Fixed TLB filling for 4XX protection ranges
PC16552d:
* Tried to wire up assert/clear signals for this chip based on guesswork
(anyone want to implement it properly? :)
* reduced address bus width of 4xx series to 31 bits per the
documentation
PPC DRC:
* fixed bug that would jump to incorrect PC after filling the
TLB during a mismatch event
* added explicit address truncation to 31 bits for 4xx series
* added new PPCDRC_ACCURATE_SINGLES option, which removes the
excessive (and very likely unecessary) extra rounding when
performing the "fast" single-precision floating point ops
Konami drivers:
* designated fast RAM accesses for work RAM
* removed unnecessary mirroring
Model 3:
* identified and fixed VBLANK bit in real3d status which was
causing the system to hang at startup
* designated fast RAM accesses for work RAM
53C810:
* changed read/write handles to proper READ8/WRITE8_HANDLER
callbacks so they can eventually be used directly
* changed from tracking "live" registers to tracking "necessary" registers
* genericized register tracking to be more flexible
* added previous instruction pointer to opcode descriptions
PowerPC frontend/DRC:
* cleaned up register tracking implementation
* fixed numerous errors and shortcomings in the tracking
* added support for removing unnecessary XER CA and CR0 computations
* updated UML logging to output new frontend statistics
MIPS3 frontend/DRC:
* tweaked register tracking to match new DRC frontend system
* updated UML logging to output new frontend statistics
Added dumper notes, hardware details and hooked the sound devices.
Moved Euro Jolly X5 to this new driver, and add support for Grand Prix.

Grand Prix [Roberto Fresca]
- Cleaned up the driver following the MAME Coding Conventions.
- Added support to Game 18.7 (Amusement Poker).
- Updated technical notes.

Cal Omega - Game 18.7 (Amusement Poker) [Roberto Fresca]
* fixed DIVS/DIVU opcode so they properly compute SZ flags when requested;
fixes camera wackiness in nbapbp
PPC DRC:
* added support for 4xx protection registers via the MMU
* added TLBH, TLBU, and DEC to the list of registers in the debugger
* turned off "end of transfer" DMA signals in favor of "transfer count 0"
signals; fixes memory-to-memory DMA in fiveside
Added another Xtal and a new machine driver to support Euro Jolly X5 hardware.
This one is based on a Mitsubishi (Renesas) M16/62A 16bit microcomputer.
(256 KB of internal flash ROM + 20 KB of RAM).

Euro Jolly X5 [Roberto Fresca]
fixed big sprite palette in top monitor
01190: punchout, spnchout: The colors of the title logo and letters on the top and bottom should be different than each other.

Verified on the schematics and on the pcb that the high score table text cannot change color.
Removed the IMPERFECT_GRAPHICS flag
Fixed music with a kludge (overclock sound CPU)
Added dip switch locations and sorted input ports
01693: jackal, jackalj, topgunbl, topgunr: After you get in the jeep the music stops.
Added two alternative Xtals and a new machine driver to support the Mystery Number hardware.
