Yeah.  That was the first thing that I looked at.  But
nothing on the xmame.net links page popped out at me
as being current.  So I thought that I would take a

thanks for the tip.  It never occured to me to look
for the latest CVS directly in sourceforge.  The
grustibus web page was hosted by sourceforge, so I
assumed (incorrectly) that it's changelog was current.
