Well, we do have this sorta in-place, but we use resource.00[01]
instead, I believe.  We identify the game that way, and use the
appropriate SCI revision. I don't recall if anyone came up with an
example of any games shipped with identical resource file(s) but
different interpreters..  (and if that's the case is there any reason to 
not use the newest known interpreter?)

Personally, I really don't think backporting stuff is worth it, instead 
the effort should go into fixing up the problems glutton has with SCI0 
games.  Certianly a showstopper of sorts is wider sound support, right?
