ah, yes, judging from the patch, the author who reverse engineered this
in the 1st plasce obviously just copied some tables directly out of the
rom and didn't understand what they were. Thats certainly an issue.
Howver the standard issue of copyright not pertaining well to the
digital domain comes in here. what happens then if *i* then read the
code, that table, derive their meaning, and recode them in a meaningful
form? ;)
