It takes a a few bytes of machine code to turn off the accelerator.
Try out this disk image:

http://cerberus.cowgod.org/apple2/choplifter-prodos-iicplus.dsk.gz

I put some code in STARTUP to check if it is running on a IIc+, and if
so, turn off the accelerator and patch Choplifter. If it isn't a IIc+,
it runs the unmodified Choplifter.
