v0.2.96.72
   This is still an alpha release!

   Note that, if compiled with GCC, you will need to use version 3.3.x, and
   the experimental DirectX 9 blitter is not built.

This list is nothing like exhaustive. These are only the highlights of a big new version;

- Thanks to the contributions of OopsWare we have some nice new drivers
      - PGM Hardware
      - Video System Hardware
      - 1945k III
      - Gals Panic
      - Power Instinct
      - Shadow Force

- I have been busy with the following
      - Added a Sega System 18 driver
      - Added Ace Attacker, Excite League and Super League to the Sega System 16 drivers
      - Added various bootlegs to the Sega System 16 driver
      - Added driver for Kaneko 16 Hardware
      - Added Honey Dolls, Snow Bros. 3, and The Winter Bobble to the Pandora based driver
      - Added a generic lightgun interface to the burn library and converted all existing drivers to use it
      - Emulated column and row scroll in System 16 tilemaps (still has a few issues with a few instances)
      - Added support for (multiple) YM2612/3438 sound chips (as used by System 18)
      - Added support for the RF5C68 PCM sound chip (still has issues which escape me at present, used by System 18)
      - Fixed an issue with high BPP support in the generic tiles interface
      - Matched all sets to MAME 0.117u3 and added some clones to various drivers

- Added Ganbare Ginkun and Riot to the Tecmo 16 driver [BisonSAS]
- Added kev's preliminary Dec0 driver to debug builds [kev]
