Its actually a revision of the 6526, a chip Commodore in general uses all
over the place, in C64s, C128s, and 1571 drives.  Of course, the C64
and C128 couldn't use a corrected version of any kind, due to software
compatibility requirements.  Along with the clock correction, I think 
the output drivers of one of the ports was changed.
