Yeah... probably. Although, if it's a shitload of code copied from mame,
the ftpmasters and security team might be interested in keeping just one
source package instead of two.

However, if mess settles on this new scheme, I think we'll want to
consider splitting the source package for 0.144, we'll see when it comes.
It's at least saner than what they did before...
