We could add some extra bios/xbios call to help the program 
detect if an amulator is running, and which version ; but if so, I 
think it should be turnable by the user and not enabled by default.

But this should be our last option, first we should try to fix bugs.

Well, in that's case, if it's just a problem of adjusting relative volume 
level between YM output and DMA output in Hatari, then I think we should 
be able to improve the situation in case 1.3 would not be completly 
correct.
