Excuse me if I'm mistaken - but why not release the bug fixes now?  As well
put it in the public domain.  Since it is only useful to people with Ataris
and major bug fixing like this should have been done from the start, I see
no reason not to let people burn their own roms to fix the operating system. 
If its left to Atari, we won't see this for at least 1 year!!  I'm not even
asking for the source - just a romable executable file that can be distributed
on usenet/bitnet/atarinet etc.
	Is support like this too much to ask, or does Atari see $$$ in new
rom sales and/or developer registrations for this?
