It's not like that the bug should be fixed for gaming, but just because it's a
major pain. That's why i thought it was a good idea for SOC. I just tested
Stefan Dosinger patches and looks like this bug is also going to affect all
ddraw applications as soon as they get merged (Videolan player works well with
the patches but the rest of my screen turns black completely :( )
