1 V0.8 (snapshot) -
2 - Unix: runs natively on NetBSD/m68k
3 - Unix: compiles without pthreads, but without serial/ethernet/audio
4 support
5 - Unix: "--without-mon" configure option now works
6 - Unix/video_x.cpp: DGA and SHM are only tried on local X11 displays
7 - Unix/video_x.cpp: re-integrated old window update method; frameskip=0
8 ("Dynamic") selects new method, other values select old method
9 - Unix/prefs_editor_unix.cpp: new "Input" pane, containing keycode
10 and mouse wheel options
11 - AmigaOS: added support for CyberGraphX [Jürgen Lachmann]
12 - audio.cpp: audio_data is cleared on reset [Lauri Pesonen]
13 - prefs.cpp: empty string prefs items could be written to prefs file
14 but not read back correctly

46 in the ROM is now always used; this fixes the MacOS 8 Finder
47 copying bug and also most "unimplemented trap" errors on MacOS
48 bootup; yeah :-)
49 - a warning is issued if the ROM seems to require an FPU but FPU
50 emulation is turned off
51 - medium removal is allowed in CDROMExit()
52 - added (incomplete) emulation of 68040 instructions (CINV, CPUSH,
53 MOVE16 (Ax)+,(Ay)+, and FPU stack frames), enough to boot MacOS
