WHDLoad patch works thanks to Stingray nice idea to 'detach' the VBI with a trigger for a CIA IRQ6 that simulates PAL timing.

Unfortunately this does not eliminate the problem of missing time in the frame if the processor is slow.
So in NTSC it no longer crashes, but if the processor is not fast enough there are a significant amount of video glitches.
Probably for NTSC machines the IRQ manager should be completely rethought, also dropping the frames in case the processor cannot cope.
