98 >        - imported UAE CPU 0.8.10 changes
99 >        - new utility functions Mac_memset, Mac2Host_memcpy, Host2Mac_memcpu
100 >          and Mac2Mac_memcpy
101 >        - extfs.cpp: fixed bug in fs_rename() and fs_cat_move() (auxiliary

114 >          Lauri Pesonen's site
115 >        - removed the MemoryDispatch() replacement routine; the routine
116 >          in the ROM is now always used; this fixes the MacOS 8 Finder
117 >          copying bug and also most "unimplemented trap" errors on MacOS
118 >          bootup; yeah :-)
119 >        - a warning is issued if the ROM seems to require an FPU but FPU
120 >          emulation is turned off
121 >        - medium removal is allowed in CDROMExit()
122 >        - added (incomplete) emulation of 68040 instructions (CINV, CPUSH,

137 >        - Unix/audio_oss_esd.cpp: AudioStatus is re-set after determining
138 >          audio device capabilities (actual sample rate is also determined)
139 >          [Alexander R. Pruss]
