What about Final Burn Alpha/Neo? They're extremely popular.

Final Burn isn't a fork of MAME, it was a completely separate code base that started as an Afterburner emulator that just kept growing.

They do share some CPU emulation code, but that's common in emulation, often someone wriets a good CPU core then it gets passed around.
