allocation fails while printing a log message, but if you get to that
point, you're probably screwed already.

CSK Research Institute games on FM Towns don't follow the same sequence
as other games when reading inputs. They depend on the data lines not
being updated for some time after /Ack goes high, and can miss
transitions if the timing is too tight (ironic that 16MHz '386 software
has these issues when the 7MHz 6502 in the PC Engine gets by fine).
This fudges the timings to work with the these buggy games without
breaking the other use cases.
Also for some reason, these games expect an XE-1AP in MD mode with a
Sega controller adapter - they won't work wth an XE-1AP in Personal
Computer mode, and they won't work with the XE-1AJ or its NEC-branded
relative. In MAME you can flip the Interface setting to MD in the
Machine Configuration options without needing to use an adapter device.
* Use full country names in description.
* Use lowercase for descriptive text in descriptions.

ibm5150.xml: Ancient Land of Ys [Angelo Salese]
Rationalised interface, got rid of TH from the "pulled" lines, and
extended to support output on all data lines. Renamed to be less
specific as the same interface is shared by multiple consoles.
Removed a lot of unnecessary indirection through I/O ports and multiple
levels of inversion in peripheral emulation that was obfuscating the
code.
Made Rapid Fire Unit switches toggles so they can be assigned to
controller buttons and switched on/off easily during gameplay. You can
still see/change the current state in the Toggle Inputs menu if you
don't want to assign buttons.
Implemented idle timeout in Furrtek 4-player Master System adapter.
Improved crosshair tracking in Graphic Board, added ability to
raise/lower pen, and greatly cleaned up code.
Fixed paddle controller when used with export consoles.
Added 3-button and 6-button Mega Drive control devices.
sega/sms.cpp: SG-1000 Mark III has pin 7 of controller ports tied low -
indicate this to attached controllers (this pin became TH on the Master
System).
sega/mdconsole.cpp: Replaced controller emulation in the driver with
Sega controller ports. Also removed some vestigial code from the driver
base class.
sharp/x68k.cpp: Replaced controller emulation in the driver with MSX
controller ports.
bus/msx/ctrl: Added a Sega controller adapter device, supported by
X68000 software including chelnov and ssf2.
