== Specific Contributions ==
The known contributions for this version are, in the order specified in the whatsnew:

* [[Lord Nightmare]] updated the TMS5220 core to use shifts instead of divides for the parameter interpolation. Also added support for internal clamping to 8-bit output when using the internal DAC.

* [[smf]] fixed a regression that caused CHD games to crash if the CHD was not present. Also fixed change that required write access to CHDs.

* [[Aaron Giles]] fixed CHD search paths again so that they look in parent subdirectories.

* [[smf]] fixed security cassette contents to get Guitar Freaks 3rd Mix (GE949 VER. JAB) in game.

* [[Nathan Woods]] exposed core_vfprintf(), and implemented mame_vfprintf() in terms of that call.

* [[David Haywood]] made some improvements to the Wheels + Fire driver. Still not right.

* [[smf]] added SCSIOP_GET_INQUIRY_BUFFER to scsicd & scsihd.

* [[ElSemi]] made MB86233 core changes:
** fixed a double move opcode
** added a previously unknown double move opcode

* [[Nathan Woods]] changed the way MAME handles options internally. Changed mame_options_init() to return a core_options object, which is now passed into mame_execute(). Moved mame_options() to mame.c, which is now only valid while the emulation is running. Audit functions now take a core_options parameter.

* [[Tim Lindner]] made more HD6309 fixes:
** the SEXW instruction not longer clears the overflow flag
** now generating an illegal instruction trap if invalid registers specified for TFM

* [[Nathan Woods]] changed Windows message filtering to only apply to MAME game windows.

* [[Aaron Giles]] Made a cleanup pass through the new x86emit.h code emitters, changing the way memory is referenced and replacing macros with inline functions.

* [[Aaron Giles]] updated MIPS and PowerPC drc cores to use the new emitters. Removed the old macro-based ones in x86drc.h.

* [[Aaron Giles]] added save state support to pacland.

* [[Aaron Giles]] made -autoframeskip aware of the -speed setting.

* [[Aaron Giles]] fixed stack buffer overrun in install_mem_handler() that broke the Hyperstone-based games under gcc 4.2.1.
