mame: update to 0.258.

Yes, it’s time for another release: MAME 0.258! It’s been another
month of exciting Apple updates. Several low-cost Macintosh computers
with 68040 CPUs are now supported, and there are fixes for some
issues with sound playback. For earlier Macintosh computers, there
are two new floppy disk software lists: one for original dumps and
one containing low-impact cracks. Support for early CD-ROM drives
has been improved, allowing early multimedia software for the Apple
II and Macintosh to run. There are also a few Apple III fixes in
there.

Moving on to other computers, Silicon Graphics workstation support
is still making progress. This month, the Personal IRIS 4D family
have been promoted to working. The ZX Spectrum family has been
further filled out with another enhanced clone from Scorpion, Ltd.
Work is continuing on various PC video and sound cards, allowing
software that uses more of their advanced features to run. This
month, you may notice better sampled sound playback when using the
Sound Blaster ISA card. In some cases, software that would previously
hang when playing sounds now works properly.

Two quiz games running on Namco’s System 12 are now working: Derby
Quiz My Dream Horse, and Kaiun Quiz. A version of The Legend of
Kage with different sound hardware has been added, as well as a
location test version of Dogyuun and a version of Makaimura (released
internationally as Ghosts’n Goblins) that fits in between two of
the previously supported versions. Although it doesn’t provide much
in the way of gameplay, Sega’s Wanpaku Safari ride, based on Saturn
hardware, has been dumped and added.
