FYI I don't have the original contrib any more so I hope someone else does. I believe part of the issue was that it was added pretty much as a crude hack, rather than it being legal issues (the rest of the dreamcast port was assigned obviously). And there was no way to test it too as you needed some special equipment IIRC. But Jesper will know so I'll shut up :-).
