Yeah the fix affects quite a few games, it's on a low level function so it's used by quite a few, that's why I released a new binary because of it.
Yes your problems are related to rasters, and I never tried to emulate them in cps2, maybe they are easier than the neogeo ones though !
I thought about the year actually, I wonder if there is a gcc define which inserts the year the program is compiled, it would fix this for good, but I didn't check gcc docs yet, on the todo list.
