Currently it runs the bios to completion (which includes the fancy boot
animation) and the "dashboard" runs, but nothing cool is displayed since
the graphics code has OpenGL bugs that I need to track down.

The rough todo has some discrete tasks that could be approached in
isolation, but mostly it's just grinding through getting things working:
  -get shit rendering properly
    -fix /all/ the bugs :/
    -fragment shader generation from register combiners
    -fix vertex shader generation
    -create/destroy graphics context properly
  -get shit making sound properly
  -game controller (xpad) emulation/passthrough
  -fatx/xiso virtual block devices
  -make x86-x86 tcg not retarded slow or get useful kernel support on
Windows if that's remotely feasible

Yeah. "Replaced"? Could rename the registers, but that wouldn't really
accomplish anything... I guess they'd have to be rewritten from scratch?
That'd be quite an annoying amount of work :/
