MacLanding 0.6 patch patch (oops)

Last week I posted a patch to the shareware Defender-clone
MacLanding that lets you use the backspace key instead of the
non-existent key #52 on a newer macintosh keyboard (mac+ or later).

Unfortunately, I missed the code that checks for key-up on the
enter key, which meant that running the patch as posted blew away
one smart bomb for every tick that you held the backspace key down.

I thought it made the game more challenging, but some people didn't
like it... :-)

Here then are both necessary patches to make everything work
the way you'd expect it to work:

s/0010 6758/0008 6758/
s/0010 6644/0008 6644/

The first line was posted previously, the second is new.  Both
source patterns should be unique in the file.
