macos keys (patch 10713).

dfinput: visual vibration option."

PCSX2 SVN r4956

"r4955
GSdx: Bogus MSB bits of TEX0.CSA should be ignored as it looks. Only corrected where the palette is read (this fixes "Idol Janshi Suchie-Pai IV"), writes to the CLUT may be handled the same way, but so far no game has been found broken because of this.
r4956
GSdx: Also wrapping CLUT writes now, previous revision broke SFEX. CLUT buffer overruns are very rare, tell me if you find any other game doing it."

Dolphin Git 3.0-199

"- Made the JIT bypass the icache when it is executing the external interrupt exception handler. Fixed by comwiz.k
- UI: refactor the game list sorting code
- Formatting fixes for el.po and pt_BR.po
On Linux with recent versions of gettext these formatting fixes are done
automatically by gettext when updating the PO files. They create conflicts each
time a rebase / merge is done and need to be reset manually.
- Game ini database update for Kirby's Adventure Wii, Monster House, Mario
Strikers Charged, Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's: Duel Transfer, Mario & Sonic at the Olympic
Winter Games, Disney Epic Mickey.
- Merge branch 'JitCache' of https://skidau@code.google.com/p/dolphin-emu/"
