100 emulator names the two platforms run had no profile, so their packs carried nothing for them. Each was read from the platform's own launcher or scriptmodule: the same program as an existing profile takes the name in cores:, a different build gets its own profile read from that version, a launcher or self-contained game goes to remove_cores, and the rest are new profiles written from their source or shipped binary. The files they need that the collection lacked are collected from the upstream distributions. Bungie and splitwolf trees are read by path and stay out of dedup.
RetroArch pins 23 ScummVM engine-data files and FBNeo's hiscore.dat at
revisions upstream history still holds; they are now collected. The
two profiles claim the revision their core is built from, so the pack
keeps serving the core its own files and the pins sit beside them.
