2008/01/29 - version 0.9.6beta2 released

Main change: major graphics output overhaul, two video backends - software
and OpenGL renderer. Faster graphics output on all platforms. Try enabling
the OpenGL output in the [OPENGL] section of the config file (beware, might
not work on some platforms, tested on Linux only).

Massive Mac OS X port improvements: MacIntel supported, fat binaries
available, JIT working (on x86), networking working, and more.

o IDE disks now up to 130 GB large (removed 32 GB barrier)
o SCSI/partitions no longer limited to 2 GB, and made up to 4x faster
o new ARAnyM logo at startup, new window manager, menu and desktop icons
o networking fixes: now works after reboot, new Setup config dialog added
o HostFS fixes: Dreadlabel() for MAGXDESK
o SDL-GUI: 8x16 font, 80 columns, improved old dialogs and added new ones
o MinGW compilable (native MS Windows binary, contrary to Cygwin one)
o RTC timer on Linux host for more precise MFP timer interrupts
(if it errors out try running "sudo sysctl -w dev.rtc.max-user-freq=1024")
o new command line option "--locale CC" where CC is ISO country code
(example: "--locale DE" will preset NVRAM to german keyboard layout)
o one more FPU bug (visible in frexp()) fixed
