That's up to the individual gui, which is responsible for the
inter-frame delay (in GTK it's a timer AFAIK).

gui.cpp itself has no timer and waits for advance_movie() to be
called since the main loop is in the GUI implementation.

Agree, but that needs to be implemented in the GUI.

OS newbe question: Is this the normal way to go? I thought a release
branch gets mostly patches that have been proven?
