Very true, but might as well fix it anyways, since its been driving me
nuts. The current code is just wrong. Might as well have working code,
in case anyone uses it for anything in the future. Either that or we
should remove it entirely, but I'm not about to make that call (for all
I know, there could be a billion of these in a thin client somewhere).
Maybe Richard can clear up if these were ever mass produced/sold, google
turns up nothing of interest.

Thanks. From what I can tell, my p2-99 is a p2b with the 440zx chipset
(which is 90% identical), I just can't get to it right now. No matter
what though, these targets shouldn't be any more broken than they were
before ;)
