wIconify looks for the string 'Workbench' to locate the proper screen (I
guess) and when SetCPU FASTROM is run the Workbench string gets patched to
'Fastbench'.  Use your favorite zapper and go into the wIconify executable
and change all occurances of 'Workbench' to 'Fastbench' and it'll work just
fine.
Of course now when you boot the 68k side and SetCPU doesn't do the patches
wIconify won't be able to find 'Fastbench' since the screen is now called
Workbench again, so keep a copy of both w's around and use SetCPU's test
mode to detect the CPU type in  your startup-sequence and conditionally run
the appropriate wIconify (patched or not patched).
