"BADPAD quirk handling", is currently broken in 2.4.22-pre7-8, the
patches
you gave me worked fine (before its inclusion into 2.4), but for
somereason (in Mame) the joypad will not properly center. In other
words, its being being force UP without any input. If you need more
debug info, gimme a yell.

in xmame, what happens, the gamepad will initially point to one side,
tho after a little more use (all while playing the one game) it'll
correct itself. this is repeated, often.
