src/machine/random.c

Why would that be the problem when the driver doesn't even use it?

just a thought, maybe main() somehow incorporates it (then of course all games would be broken this way...) thanks looking at it now.

I played back Luja's pairs on both machines with -log. It desyncs right at the start on the P4.

yep i get 1610 total, so it was definitley introduced in official mame63. arg! But the strange thing is if darius is one of the games that causes this bug, sjk got it to work somehow maybe...

I think Darius might be affected by -window/-nowindow. I'd have to check that out though.
