2 cebix 1.16 - fixed many UAE FPU bugs [Lauri Pesonen]
3 cebix 1.13 - added replacement for BlockMove() trap
4     - removed Windows sources from the source archive; a version of
5     these that actually compiles and works can be downloaded from
6     Lauri Pesonen's site
7 cebix 1.18 - removed the MemoryDispatch() replacement routine; the routine
8     in the ROM is now always used; this fixes the MacOS 8 Finder
9     copying bug and also most "unimplemented trap" errors on MacOS
10     bootup; yeah :-)
11     - a warning is issued if the ROM seems to require an FPU but FPU
12     emulation is turned off

14 cebix 1.18 - added (incomplete) emulation of 68040 instructions (CINV, CPUSH,
15     MOVE16 (Ax)+,(Ay)+, and FPU stack frames), enough to boot MacOS

33     value (0 instead of 0x80) [Alexander R. Pruss]
