I did not encounter this bug in my testing, but such a short test
window and requiring SVN checkouts is not going to make for a big test
audience. The only ones testing are goign to be the ones running the
SVN already and these folks are already submitting patches and reports
for the bigs the have hit. An -rc release would alow teh non-svn users
to get in on the testing and provide a stable testing target. I am
tryign to figure out if the games plugin is broke or my setup is broke
before filing a bug on that.

Currently even though I have snes installedand detected by freevo
setup I am not getting the Games option to show up in teh menu it is
reporting it self as active in the Freevo plugins lists.
