[quake3] demoq3 (Was: Hey all -- who here is an X config god? ;))

[David Chait]

First, I did RTFM.  Saw a page discussing the source release and successful 
use of the demo pakfile. :-p ;-)

Second, I don't know where this makes an impact but I'm targeting 
 >unsupported< CPUs.  So while I'm currently trying to run on x86, an asm-vm 
binary won't do me any good (and I have only vm_interpreted.c and vm_none.c 
in my minorly-tweaked makefile).
