[Coco] MAME FDC Issue that can cause corruption

[David Ladd]

Glen,

Yes it is cool, but one of the devs already says a patch has been pushed to
the repo and from the way it looks isn't Ciaran's code.

So I am waiting for MSYS64/git to finish processing the
changes.....tap.tap.tap...and as soon as that is done I will try building a
updated version on my system to test their code out.  Hopefully it works.
I know Ciaran's does.  I will update you to let you know how my tests go
with what was pushed.
