Hack description
This patch contains the following fixes:
1) TurboFix: Fixed the timing and split screen routines, allowing the game to be run with the turbo enabled on machines that support this. Running with turbo will allow the game to run at a much better framerate and will also eliminate the constant slowdowns. Many animations also get much smoother, like i.e. the animation of the bosses of the stages 3, 6, 8 and 9. This patch will also enable the turbo on boot for the MSX Turbo-R machines.
2) Fixed the bug of the random number generator of the stage-7 boss (the big green head with horns). This bug caused a too long delay between the launch of each bubble, resulting in one of the lamest bosses of the MSX history. After this fix, the boss started to behave as a real stage boss.
