The real way coefficient updates are handled is a little too complex
for now, but the hack throttles the update speed to the real rate
given the way konami uses it (once per sync). It's near impossible to
use it in a different way anyway.
Fixes mantis 2941 (at least for puzldama) and maybe 2953 (needs to
find the roms and test).
note, this version is clearly a different PCB, it uses the older style sprites (which are actually just bootleg tumble pop sprites..)
the sound rom on the PCB is bad.
also added sprite flicker flag, based on tumble pop etc.

Subject: [patch] More static/const qualifiers
Hi mamedev,
Another round of static/const qualifier additions, plus a rename of
has_addon_chip to snes_has_addon_chip. Notably a number of z80ctc_interface
are now const (devicification must have removed the cases where it was
dynamically modified). Notice that the READWRITExTOy macros declare two
functions, so you can't make the 2nd function static. Those macros should
probably be reworked or removed.

Subject: Proposed patch for src/emu/audit.c
Dear MAME developers,
I've created the attached diff to src/emu/audit.c (0.129u5) to allow for
reporting a ROM state of "correct" when a game/machine doesn't require any
ROM files at all (currently it will be reported as "not found", which is
wrong IMHO).
I know that this isn't really relevant for MAME, but it is for MESS -- so
I hope you'll accept the patch.
Thanks, Rene

Subject: Patch fixing compilation with gcc-4.4
Hi,
the following patch is needed in order to make mame compile with gcc-4.4. It was tested with sdlmame 0.129u4 on Fedora rawhide. Cheers!
* corrupt files in archives now generate an error
* archive files ending in "/" will not be tested for crc - skip path entries
* add new flag FILE_OPEN_NO_PRELOAD to skip decompressing on open
This is used in audit.c, which only tests whether files exist
* added error checking to all calls to load_file_zipped
--------------------------------------------------
I see that eeprom_data is initialized with a memeset of 0xff so I don't think this change will break anything.

I wonder if this game is a bootleg or just a rip-off..."XEX" logo is pretty
much similar to the Dynax one...
This patch will make happier the environments that do not know that
"still reachable" and "leaked" are not the same thing and that exit()
is a _very_ good deallocator.
