   Most of them are "almost" native, meaning that the SID file   
   consists of a fixed header followed by the executable program.   
   You may need to look into the header for load and execute addresses.   
   Some files don't have their own IRQ driving routine, but instead   
   use the default one in the SID emulator. There you have those   
   JSR $1000 and JSR $1003 calls.   
      
   A few files containing samples are fixed to work with the SID   
   emulation. Those may not be possible to play back on a real C64.   
   I think they are the files with PSID suffix. One by one however,   
   those are re-fixed to work both with newer emulators and a real 64.
