Quite a few software and hardware packages rely on questionable
practices that mostly work by accident or compatibility patches.
Amiga technologies cannot afford to continue with hacks. We think
that it is a good idea to tell you about problems we know about
now as the SW we mention might turn out to be no longer
supportable on a future machine due to the hacks involved. This way
you can find out about bug free and OS legal upgrades or
replacement software early on. Note that the SW mentioned might
still work well on your system even though it contains flaws. We
simply cannot guarantee that it will continue to work.
Games
-----

at all on future Amiga models]

causes reboots and passes values in reserved memory areas
across the reboot.

Applications

expects results of certain dos.library functions in CPU
register D1, instead of D0.
