Description
This boss in Catlevania Dawn of Sorrow(game code NTR-ACVE-USA) has an issue where the overlap of the arm segments near his elbow will flash black.
Affects both the software renderer and OpenGL renderer. I've verified that it does not happen on real hardware.
Here is a save file right before him. He's to the left of the save room.

Start by loading the attached save file for Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow and reproduce the black flashing at the boss's elbow in both the software and OpenGL renderers. Compare the behavior with real hardware; done means the overlapping arm segments render without flashing in both emulator renderers.
