Out of interest, what's MachineType 3 ?

After several frustrating hours trying and failing to get HADFS IDE hard
drive support working with BeebEm, I was sent scuttling around the
source code.

In file beebmem.ccp:
---8<---
       if ((Address & ~0x7)==0xfc40 && MachineType==3) {
               return(IDERead(Address & 0x7));
---8<---
       if ((Address & ~0x7)==0xfc40 && MachineType==3) {
               IDEWrite((Address & 0x7),Value);
               return;
---8<---

Nooo!!!!!!! You can plug a hard drive interface into ANY bbc computer.
It should read
---8<---
       if ((Address & ~0x7)==0xfc40) {
               return(IDERead(Address & 0x7));
---8<---
       if ((Address & ~0x7)==0xfc40) {
               IDEWrite((Address & 0x7),Value);
               return;
---8<---

I'm almost at the point of actually tracking down a CPP compiler so I
can actually rebuild the code properly.
