No, looks like I'm too young - my first computer was an Atari ST, and I've never seen a version of that game on this machine. > "digic_load_rom()" knows the filename via an extern “bios_name” which is at > “include/sysemu/sysemu.h” but really lives in “vl.c”.

It should just be there (also on qemu-system-arm). For example, try to add a "fprintf(stderr, "bios_name = %s\n", bios_name);" into the mcf5208evb_init() and then run "qemu-system-m68k -bios /tmp/file" - you should be able to see "bios_name = /tmp/file" in the output of QEMU.
