so staging adds a new config symbol that conflicts with the
(incorrect namespace) usage in mach64.h.

mach64 needs to change IMO, even though it is older.
Sigh, yes, that file has gone on a rampage through the namespace
rules.  I'll take a look at it sometime.

I went ahead with a minimal set of changes, but you can toss them
and do more if you prefer.

These were the official names as used in the ATI docs. After these changes, you
can no longer easily grep for them.

Perhaps it's better to prefix everything with ATI_? yes, I know it's more work
(for the writer), but we want to optimize for the reader, right?
