Of course, it would be the best solution that Hatari works as a real 
Atari, but that's not the case for now. So we need to have workaround to 
warn the user, either automatically (which doesn't seem possible so far 
due to the lack of a version string in emutos) or in the doc.

Problem is that as you know, not everyone read the doc.

Also, if next Hatari version will include 0.8.6, people that work 
directly from the source might not be aware of the new versions of 
emutos, so not everyone will switch to 0.8.6.
