Alpha: 2.0.1 alpha 3 and news about 2.0 bugfix release

Hi all,

I've released 2.0.1 alpha 3 at http://www.ttdpatch.net/src/

I think this time I've *really* fixed the sharedorders bug with the 
delete/reset button not working correctly.  Sorry that it took so many 
tries to get it right...

Otherwise, I've added a couple more bug fixes, the most important one 
fixing a crash in the Windows version, particularly on Windows 
2000/XP.  This crash happened while TTDPatch was checking switch 
dependencies, before even starting the game.  There was another crash just 
after the intro before the main menu was displayed, if morecurrencies or 
enhgui 16 was on, but no new graphics have been loaded (e.g. if 
newgrf(w).cfg didn't exist).  Another bugfix was that selecting new 
currencies in the main menu didn't actually apply to new games, and finally 
a bugfix with gradualloading and miscmods 8, where a train sometimes 
refused to load more cargo if it didn't unload any before visiting the next 
station.

Because the first crash (checking switch dependencies) was quite serious, I 
intend to make a bugfix release for the 2.0 final version.  This will only 
include bugfixes, and none of the new features available in the 
alphas.  However, since all the bugfixes that will go into 2.0 rev 1 (or 
whatever it'll be called) are now in alpha 3, please test these fixes 
thoroughly.  I'll release the bugfix version of 2.0 after getting feedback 
on how well alpha 3 works.

If you know of a bug in 2.0 final which *hasn't* been fixed in alpha 3 yet, 
please tell me immediately.


All changes in alpha 3:
- really, really, *really* fix sharedorders...
- split vehspri.asm into vehspri.asm and newsprit.asm
- created statspri.asm for new station graphics, but so far it's
   empty
- updated newgrf.txt with the specs for station graphics (doesn't
   work yet though)
- actions 7 and 9 can now test the TTDPatch version
- created new random triggers for when consist empties or gets new
   load (currently works only with gradualloading)
- fixed crash while parsing command line
- fixed crash if no new graphics but morecurrencies on or enhgui
   0x10
- support patchproc notation of bit1 AND bit2 AND (bit3 OR bit4 OR
   bit5)
- fixed selection of new currencies in main menu not applying to new
   game
- fixed bug with train loading a bit, returns to station and refuses
   to load
