I'm in favor of adding MAX_SECTORS_128. Then the Genesys stuff could be replaced by a simple flag. It might turn out that some of the existing entries with IGNORE_RESIDUE could get away with a new MAX_SECTORS_64 flag instead, although there are definitely some that can't. Figuring out which is which would be more trouble than it's worth. We can always add this flag later.
