  . Numerous jedutil tool improvements
  . Made some modifications to the jedutil tool to allow the viewing of simple combinatorial jeds (adding support for registered and gals in the future) by taking a jed file and printing out human-readable equations.
  . Changed the command line options of the jedutil tool to know take an initial argument to specify what the tool should do. For example to convert a jed to bin the command is now: jedutil -convert   and jedutil -convert  . To view a jed file with human-readable equations the command is jedutil -view  .
  . Added a simple regression test for the tool that just verifies that the currently known PALs have the row and column fuse location mapped correctly and at the moment this tool runs under Windows only. Under the directory src\regtests\jedutil there is a Windows Script File with the name jedtest.wsf that if run from the command line with the command "cscript jedtest.wsf" will verify that a dump of the jeds in src\regtests\jedutil\jeds matches the good dumps in src\regtests\jedutil\baseline. Reference jed files created using the tool eqn2jed which is included with Opal Jr and these files are in src\regtests\jedutil\eqns (regtests\jedutil\baseline\pal10h8.txt, pal10l8.txt, pal12h6.txt, pal12l6.txt, pal14h4.txt, pal14l4.txt, pal16h2.txt, pal16l2.txt, pal16l8.txt, pal20l10.txt and pal20l8.txt), (regtests\jedutil\eqns\pal10h8.eqn, pal10l8.eqn, pal12h6.eqn, pal12l6.eqn, pal14h4.eqn, pal14l4.eqn, pal16h2.eqn, pal16l2.eqn, pal16l8.eqn, pal20l10.eqn, pal20l8.eqn and readme.txt) and (regtests\jedutil\jeds\pal10h8.jed, pal10l8.jed, pal12h6.jed, pal12l6.jed, pal14h4.jed, pal14l4.jed, pal16h2.jed, pal16l2.jed, pal16l8.jed, pal20l10.jed, pal20l8.jed and jedtest.wsf).

- MAME
  . Added safe_pc() and safe_pcbase() methods to device_t. Convert all cpu_get_pc() to safe_pc() and cpu_getpreviouspc() to safe_basepc(). Removed the old macros. 
  . Don't use safe_pc[base] when you already have a resolved device_state_interface. Added redundant methods to device_state_interface to generate errors when this is done.
  . In device_state_interface, rename state() to state_int() and set_state() to set_state_int() for consistency. Update all callers. Also add set_pc() helper and updated all callers to use that instead of set_state_int(STATE_GENPC).
  . Added device_t::state() method to get the state interface. Added redundant device_state_interface::state() method to catch redundant use of it. 
  . Removed cpu_get_reg() and cpu_set_reg() macros in favor of using the above methods
  . cothread removed, was not used for a long time and was commented.
  . Made core able to use BIOS selection per slot device (example: mess kc85_4 -exp d004gide,bios=v31)
  . Removed astring::stringbuffer() / use cached value in astring::len() instead of strlen() (lib\util\astring.h)
  . gfx_element is now a class. Accessors are provided for all necessary elements. Updated some of the more, ah, creative uses/abuses of the gfx_elements.
  . Fixed gfx_element behaviors for dynamically created single-element raw objects used in offbeat drivers like metro.c.
  . Created new sprite device base class, which manages a bitmap and a sparse bitmap for tracking which areas got updated. This allows sprites to be rendered independently to their own bitmap and then mixed in a final step. Converted the Sega sprite device over to this new model, and moved the mixing steps out of the sprite implementations and into the driver-specific video updates where it belongs. Added some further methods and helpers to the bitmap_t and rectangle classes. Created a sega_16bit_common_base class which handles thecommon Sega palette RAM mappings and open bus reads.
  . TILE/TILEMAP modernization part 1-3. tilemap_create_device users modernized (src\emu\tilemap.h, video\decbac06.c/h, deco16ic.c/h, gp9001.c/h, kaneko_tmap.c/h, konicdev.c/h, segaic24.c/h and taitoic.c/h).
  . Added ambiguous execute() and memory() methods to the device_execute/memory_interfaces respectively in order to catch unnecessary usage of the corresponding device_t methods. Removed all existing redundant usage.
  . Make ui_active a user option
  . Made cmd line parameter parsing going into unlimited levels (emu\emuopts.c and lib\util\options.c/h)
  . Closeout on old macros. Retired cputag_set_input_line and cputag_set_input_line_and_vector, replacing them with machine.device("tag")->execute().set_input_line[_and_vector].
  . More AM_BASE_LEGACY removal
  . Clear out remaining global inlines in diexec.h. Get rid of devtag_reset macro.
  . Wrong file mod (mame\etc\template_device.h)
  . Massive change: MACHINE_START\RESET, VIDEO_START\RESET and PALETTE_INIT changed to be members of state classes.
  . Pass 1/2 of modernizing struct definitions. Enum and union normalization. Final round of struct/union/enum normalization.
  . Updated DOCS config.txt and windows.txt with recent commands that were never added to documentation as well as some clarifications
- SDLMAME
  . Added gcc-4[567]-generic entries to sdl.mak to select GCC with DISTRO= switch
  . Fixed for an SDL sound bug surrounding use of -speed and pausing frequently causing corrupt sound
  . Fixed default SDL OSX UI toggle key name
  . Added Swedish/Finnish SDL keymaps for OSX and Linux
  . Don't enable XInput by default in SDL
- MESS
  . Patch that enables output of  elements stored in software lists through -listsoftware
  . Removed saa505x.c which was used by bbc.c, and refactored all drivers to use the new implementation.
- Compiling
  . Merge of MESS sources. Unified SVN properties of softlists. Testing the new SVN. Sync software lists from MESS into hash.
  . Made "make depend" to create files per target, also added "make depend_ume" as new target in case UME is used, since then it becomes complicated.
  . Added proper name of generated mak (makefile, src\ume\ume.mak)
  . Removed template usage for legacy devices. Removed not used legacy calls (emu\devlegcy.c/h).
  . Removed zero sized inline_config (machine\pic8259.c, machine\pit8253.c, machine\s3c24xx.c, video\i8275.c, video\tms9927.c, machine\gaelco3d.c and machine\mathbox.c)
  . Removed legacy inline_config support and updated devices using it
  . Removed some AM_LEGACY_BASE stuff (drivers\asteroid.c, bwidow.c, bzone.c, mhavoc.c, omegrace.c, quantum.c, starwars.c, tempest.c and tomcat.c). Conversion of legacy devices into modern WIP. Cleanup and some inheritance fixes. DEVINFO_ * to * CPU_INFO_, and some cleanups.
  . Made make depend to be defined per target to support special cases. Fixed to make "make depend" work if on empty obj tree.
  . Replaced standard mappers with an enumeration that maps internally to the original functions. The only change is to all-caps since these are constants, e.g., tilemap_scan_rows -> TILEMAP_SCAN_ROWS. 
  . Fixed some warnings about unreachable statements reported by cppcheck (emu\cpu\sh4\sh4comn.c, emu\sound\asc.c, mame\audio\dsbz80.c, mame\drivers\bfm_sc4h.c, mame\drivers\model3.c, mame\machine\mathbox.c and mame\video\konicdev.c)
  . Added missing \n to some fatalerror() calls in many drivers.
  . Fixed compile (video\taitoic.c)
  . Values must be normalized (src\emu\clifront.c)
  . Fixes so MESS on PowerPC OS X builds and works again. MAME is still a lost cause.
- Debugger: Removed some astring::stringbuffer() usage - fixes potential missing \0 termination (emu\debug\debugcpu.c)
