I had tossed together the attached path as a workaround for
mythgame-0.15 on, I run on Gentoo.
It adds a selection to the mythgame menus to specify the location of the
xml2info executable.
It has a version check to maintain compatibility with xmame <=84 which
will use old -listinfo flag.
Also removes a section which was running the check for every
sub-directory under the rompath when scanning for games. This caused the
program to spike the cpu, etc when parsing chd file directories.
Xmame-rompath is parsed recursively so I didn't see a need to parse each
subdir individually, but YMMV. Cuts scan time by the number of subdirs
you have (I have 30.....).
