Release id #153555 : Blackbird 1.0

Attention Blackbird users! I just discovered that the on-screen clock in Blackbird 1.0 doesn't work properly. On my machine it runs 20% too fast.

Now I have to edit my compotune to meet the 4 min limit for Revision.

If anybody else is affected by this screwup then I am really sorry! If you know somebody who is using Blackbird, then please make them aware of this problem immediately.

On a technical note, the bug seems to be in the TOD clock input frequency detection.

Too slow, I mean. The bad case.

Found it! It seems that whenever you invoke the fastloader in Cyberpunx RR, the TOD-clock input frequency bit in CIA-B is set to 60 Hz. Who would have guessed. A workaround will be included in the next version.
