Not unless the Fargo 0.1.x programs are patched. Otherwise the RAM
addresses will be wrong. And in Fargo 0.1.x programs, accesses to RAM
globals are not relocated, so they cannot be adjusted automatically.

There are still some solutions that would involve some degree of ROM 1.x
emulation, and I may implement one of those at some point.
