Source Changes
--------------
-Make modernized i86 core endian-safe again [Alex Jackson]

-Created new device_video_interface. Right now its sole purpose is to [Aaron Giles]
 house a screen tag and to find the screen at startup, providing an
 m_screen object that can be used. One nice feature is that if there is
 only one screen and no screen has been specified, it will auto
 configure to that screen. This removes the need to explicitly specify
 a screen in the configuration for a large chunk of drivers (though
 doing so never hurts). A new macro MCFG_VIDEO_SET_SCREEN is provided,
 though devices are encouraged to define their own that maps there so
 it is obvious which device is being targeted. The
 device_video_interface's validation function will error if an invalid
 screen is specified or if no screen is provided but there are multiple
 screens present.

 Updated all devices that currently had an m_screen in them to use the
 device_video_interface instead. This also has the nice benefit of
 flagging video-related devices for categorization purposes. It also
 means all these devices inherit the same screen-finding behaviors. For
 devices that had interfaces that specified a screen tag, those have
 been removed and all existing structs updated.
 
 Added an optional_device<screen_device> m_screen to the base
 driver_device. If you name your screen "screen" (as most drivers do),
 you will have free access to your screen this way.

 Future updates include:
  * Updating all devices referencing machine.primary_screen to use the
    device_video_interface instead
  * Updating all drivers referencing machine.primary_screen to use the
    m_screen instead
  * Removing machine.primary_screen entirely
 
-i286: modernize [Carl]

-Modernized galeco, okim6376, vr0video, mb87078, snk6502 devices.  [Osso]

-Adds a watchpoint debug view. [Andrew Gardner]

-Adds the watchpoint view to the QT Debugger's "Break|Watchpoints"
 window. [Andrew Gardner]

-Fix long-standing architectural wart: the priority bitmap is no longer [Aaron Giles]
 owned by the tilemap system, and no longer exists globally in the
 machine. Instead it is allocated per-screen for all systems. This has
 several side-effects:

 1. Previously, the pdrawgfx* functions were already changed to take
 the priority bitmap as a parameter. Now all other hand-crafted
 functions that mess with the priority bitmap generally must do so as
 well, and have been updated.

 2. Calls to the tilemap system now need to provide a screen_device.
 This is not just for the priority_bitmap, but also for screen
 flipping, which previously always assumed the "primary screen" when
 doing flipping calculations.

 3. All devices that implemented tilemap-like functionality have been
 updated to follow the same pattern, since they largely tend to call
 through to the core tilemap system at some point.

-ym2413.c - Reverted KSL value order to 0, 1.5, 3.0, 6.0dB/oct after
 testing with a real YM2413 [Wouter Vermaelen]

-Modernized galaxian sound device.  [Osso]

-Split eeprom.c into a base class base_eepr-om_device and a [Aaron Giles]
 serial-specific subclass serial_eeprom_device. Moved the latter into
 its own file eepromser.c and significantly cleaned up/simplified the
 code. The new code should be functionally the same as the previous
 code, but expect that to change soon. As a side-effect, the size and
 bus width of the EEPROM is now specified in the ADD macro rather than
 in the interface structure.

-Rewrite serial EEPROM devices, breaking them out into separate chips [Aaron Giles]
 of the proper size and protocol. Update all drivers, removing custom
 implementations, and replacing them with standard ones. Moved core
 read, write, erase functionality into the EEPROM base class a
 simulated delays in write/erase cycles. Still some more
 testing/verification work left to do.

-Add support for CD2501ECD variant of tms52xx, used in the TI 99/8
 prototype. Renamed TMC0285 to the more correct CD2501E in the TI
 99/4a. [mizapf, Lord Nightmare]

 hookup of Double Wings to it (input ports bit order not yet verified)

 Haywood]

-fixed undefined order of evaluation in FETCH* and READ* functions in
 src/emu/cpu/i386/i386priv.h [Carl, Oliver Stöneberg]

-Modernized the s14001a and exidy sound devices.  [Osso]

-Modernized the Seibu ADPCM device and converted the Seibu sound system
 to be a device.  [Osso]

 that is causing performance hits (for e.g. profiling)
 [Oliver Stöneberg]

-Added initial code for internal web server [Miodrag Milanovic]

-SDL: Revise the *IX man pages  [wallyweek]

-Moved tilemap_memory into a generic memory_array class, since it is [Aaron Giles]
 more generally useful than just in tilemaps. Code is now in memarray.*

-Converted the Atari RLE motion objects device from a half-assed device [Aaron Giles]
 into a full-assed device, leveraging the memory_array class.

-neogeo.c: fix memory leak, clean up inputs a bit [Alex Jackson]

-Added eeprompar.*, implementing a simple interface for parallel [Aaron Giles]
 EEPROMs.

-Created atari_eeprom_device which wraps a 2804 or 2816 EEPROM with the [Aaron Giles]
 standard Atari write-locking mechanism. Updated all drivers to use
 this, and removed all EEPROM stuff from atarigen.

-wd_fdc: Don't switch off the motor when the fdc doesn't have a motor
 control pin [O. Galibert, Duke]

- Assorted fixes based on PCB observations: [system11]
 * galpanic.c - Fixed rom names for newfant and added new set.
 * splash.c - Adjusted msm5205 clocks to proper values.
 * tumblep.c - Fixed sound hardware speeds to match PCB for chokchok,
    htchctch and cookbib.
   
-segas16b.c: Corrected rom labels and added PCB locations to the MVP
 (set 2, US, FD1094 317-0143) set. [Layne]

-sandscrp.c: Added dipswitch locations and corrected default settings
 for the Sand Scorpion sets. [Brian Troha]

-MC6801/6803 updates: [R. Belmont]
 * Support for timer output capture to pin P21
 * Support for externally-clocked serial
 * Added devcb2 hook for serial xmit to easily differentiate xmit from
    other Port 2 updates.  Bits are still also sent to Port 2 of
    course.

 based on recent dump: sitva->sitv (newer 'tv0h' version), sitv->sitvo
 (older 'tv01' version) [Lord Nightmare, Andrew Welburn]

    fuses for the PALCE16V8 are.  (The data sheet does not document
    what all of the fuses are.)

-Refactored dreamcast to use an ATA interface [smf]

 [Phil Bennett]

-Renamed TLCS900H to TMP95C061, moved the I/O handling into it's own
 class & hooked up TO1/TO3 to output on Port A. A hack is needed
 because ngpc doesn't set PACR/PAFC, which may be because it's a custom
 part. Changed Taito PJC to use TMP95C063. Separated I/O Ports on both
 CPU's so you can apply the devcb2 callbacks individually. [smf]

-Added 8/16 bit data bus configuration to TLCS900H. Default is 16bit,
 neogeo pocket is 8 bit [smf]

-ddealer.c: Fill in several missing dipswitch settings and add
 dipswitch locations. [Brian Troha]

-trvmadns.c: Added PCB layout for Trivia Madness. [Brian Troha]

-Use 2864 for ROM. This allows XTIDECFG to flash the rom. Tested with
 2.0.0 beta 3. You must disable SDP because eeprompar doesn't emulate
 it & you must load from a file as if you load from eeprom then it only
 finds zeros. [smf]

-Renamed IDE8 to XTIDE. [smf]

-polepos.c: Added Dipswitch locations to the Pole Position and Pole Position 2 sets.
 [Brian Troha]

-added undocumented opcode that behaves like DPCL [smf]

-Preliminary SET FEATURES support. Only set transfer mode is currently
 supported, but this checks/sets flags in the identify device buffer.
 The buffer has been moved up into atahle and the idehd has been
 changed to work with words instead of bytes. [smf]

-yunsung8.c: Added PCB layout for Cannon Ball (Vertical). [Brian Troha]

-ddragon.c: Cleanup based on Double Dragon schematics [Phil Bennett]
 * Fixed sub-CPU interrupt mechanism
 * Implemented common RAM bus lock
 * Added interrupt acks
 
-peplus.c: Minor corrections and documentation updates including known
 payout tables for some sets. [Brian Troha]

-cubeqcpu.c, f8.c, minx.c, i8085.c, i860.c, i960.c, jaguar.c, lh5801.c,
 m6800.c, m37710.c, mb86233.c, mb88xx.c, mcs48.c, mc68hc11.c, mcs51.c,
 mn10200.c, pic16c5x.c, pic16c62x.c, tlcs900.c, pps4.c,
 s2650.c: Modernized cpu cores.  [Wilbert Pol]
 
-exprraid.c: Cleanups from schematics: [Phil Bennett]
 * Corrected CPU and YM3526 clock frequencies
 * Improved protection simulation
 * Added interrupt acks
 * Added service coin input
