As of Mame 0.105 hi-scores clear after F3 reset?

Has anyone noticed that as of Mame 0.105 if you push F3 to reset a game the hi-score file clears out? 

Am I doing something wrong? Or is it the same for everyone?

This might have to do with the hard vs soft reset.  Check this thread and see if it applies to you.  Note that they talk about 0.105u1, which might be different from 0.105, since reset has been changing recently.

I had read that thread before when I was trying to work out the problem, I believe F3 is actually doing a hard reset when it should be doing a soft reset, I have even remapped hard reset to a completely different key but I still get the same result.

Can someone else please see if they have the same trouble, make sure if you want to keep your high score to make a backup of it first though.
