Here's what I think the changes are:
(1) vbeaf.c: do hardware scrolling without waiting for vertical retrace
(2) vga.c: ditto
(3) vesa.c: not sure, but probably the same thing as previous two
(4) graphics.c: ignore clipping checks for scroll_screen
(5) wjoyw32.c: more joystick buttons (16)
Anyone know if not waiting for vertical retrace is generally ok?
The fourth one is obviously out of the question (and pointless, if
you ask me). The fifth one should be ok, I'm guessing.
