Changelog:
- fixed cartridge load window focus on Windows
- lots of updates to nall, ruby and phoenix
- ethos and Emulator::Interface updated from "foo &bar" to "foo& bar"
syntax (work-in-progress)
Before I had mixed the two ways to declare variables/arguments all over
the place, so the goal is to unify them all for consistency. So the
changelog for this release will be massive (750KB >.>) due to the syntax
change. Yeah, that's what I spent the last three days working on ...

Changelog:
- added support for ruby shader folders (place in "Video Shaders/")
- higan now also looks in your shared folder for configuration files and
system media folders
- added CFBundleExecutable key to OS X Info.plist
Shared folder locations:
- Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\higan
- Windows 7: C:\ProgramData\higan
- OS X: /Library/Application Support/higan
- Linux: /etc/higan
Evaluation order:
- look for item in binary folder: if found, use this folder
- look for item in user folder: if found, use this folder
- look for item in shared folder: if found, use this folder
- create item in user folder
For people repackaging higan for other distros: you should chmod 777
/etc/higan. Failure to do so could result in higan breaking. No, I will
not copy the files from the shared path to the user path.

This release adds the phoenix/Cocoa port, and rewrites a lot of the
higan user interface to work with all of the new changes (like blocking
in the main run loop and in modal windows.)
It doesn't yet modify the compilation flags to actually build on OS
X yet, and even then, we don't really have ruby drivers, so there'd be
no video, audio or input.
Two months between a single WIP point release ... for the first six
years, I never went more than a month without a full official release.
I guess I should be happy that it's become so refined, but I sure do
miss those halcyon days of exciting progress.

Basically just a project rename, with s/bsnes/higan and the new icon
from lowkee added in.
It won't compile on Windows because I forgot to update the resource.rc
file, and a path transform command isn't working on Windows.
It was really just meant as a starting point, so that v091 WIPs can flow
starting from .00 with the new name (it overshadows bsnes v091, so
publicly speaking this "shouldn't exist" and will probably be deleted
from Google Code when v092 is ready.)
