OK I started to work on this  myself a bit. Doing that, I noticed 
that there is sort of a problem: descumm3 should probably be really 
be called descumm_smallheaders or so. It was mostly exactly descumm5, 
only for small headers, and a very other differences. I started now 
to convert descumm3 to actually do what its name implies (descumm v3 
games), but obviously, this means that we loose support for loomcd & 
monkeyvga.

There are several routes to go about this. We could add a descumm5SH; 
or we could modify descumm5 to automatically support small header 
games. Considering that descumm3 and descumm5 still are almost 
identical, we could try to get all of these differences into a single 
source file, with either the ability to switch the target at compile 
time, or even nicer, on run time... Of course that's some work :-)


Cheers,

Max
