From a6c337dec0837135949cc3927a77b07290e1d2cb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Patrick Georgi Date: Wed, 3 Feb 2010 17:56:37 +0000 Subject: Guards against errors that are hard to track down: - if crt0s is empty (eg. because crt0-y is still used), break the build, and say where that behaviour changed - if a stage is unusable for cbfstool because it's placed outside the ROM space (linked to 0 is somewhat notorious), warn about it, give some hints and exit instead of crashing.
