Bonanza's Joker Poker [Roberto Fresca, Grull Osgo]
- Routed the entire audio path.
- DSP is mostly a passthrough. Just does quantization (ADC) right now.
- Using 'samples' mechanism for audio input.
- Other style and code organization fixes.
- Refactored around an internal address space object so both 32 and 64-bit host machines just work
- A few minor bits of cleanup/modernization
apple/maclc.cpp: Patch macclas2's ROM to fix a verified-on-hardware illegal 68030 instruction that
manages to work by accident. This fixes MAME showing a sad Mac after POST in 32-bit
mode (pending determination of what the 68030 actually does). [Doug Brown, R. Belmont]

Mephisto Excalibur [hap, anonymous, Berger]
Mephisto Excalibur (WCCC 1983 New York TM) [hap, anonymous, Berger]
This change:
1. Fixes RLE encoding which was short by 50%
2. Simplifies code, reducing by >100 lines.
3. Renames Channel to Path to match the Green Book spec.
4. Adds TODO for QHY DYUV images. This image type can't be tested without 625 scanline resolution which is currently blocked. So this will remain a known gap until several other features are added.
* ibm5170_cdrom: NT 3.x floppies, SDKs, resource kits, service packs
Found clean floppy disk images from MSDN sets, so build 528 of NT 3.1
now has a 5.25" floppy disk for CD-ROM based installs. Most
translated versions have their floppy disks for CD-ROM based installs
added, too.
MSDN often contained whatever the latest service pack was at the time
a set was made, those discs are here now too. Microsoft was
cost-conscious of printing many CDs, so these are often combined with
other software. A sole independent Windows NT 3.51 SP4 disc has been
found and included here. Were other 3.x service pack CD-ROMs made?
Most likely SP5 was, but I have not located one.
Were 3.x service packs released on independent
CD-ROMs from the MSDN sets? If so, they should replace the entries
here.
The resource kit CD-ROMs for 3.1, 3.5, 3.51, and 4.0 are all included
here. These contain companion software to the "Windows NT Resource
Kit" book that was published. Even without the book, many of the
utilities prove useful for the operating system.
Windows NT 4.0 Service Pack 6 has been replaced by a properly
prepared/shipped disc from Microsoft with an autorun installer.

* The DYUV format does not allow Mosaic features.
* The Transparency flag was left-shifted incorrectly.
