Btw. Has anybody tested whether FreeMiNT & XaAES still work under
plain 68000?   The latest binary release here (from 2006) was fixed for
that:
	http://xaaes.atariforge.net/download.php?product=xaaes

and seems to work fine in the latest Hatari emulator (under its ST, STe, TT
and Falcon emulation when using EmuTOS).

I don't have a need for it to work on plain 68000, especially now that
Hatari supports TT/Falcon, I'm just curious...
