Ensure that IF constructs, REPT blocks, and MACRO defintions are terminated with ENDC, ENDR, or ENDM respectively. If they are not, print an error and stop assembly.
As well as aiding a forgetful programmer, this reduces the risk of memory problems if the file ends less than four bytes after the block starts.
Previously, if BANK is used when defining a section that’s not ROMX,
WRMAX, SRAM or VRAM, a second error message would appear, e.g. “(null)
bank value $1 out of range $5d to $0”.
This would appear due to the usage of uninitialised variables. This
change ensures that the uninitialised variables are not accessed when
using an invalid section.
This also silences compiler warnings about usage of uninitialised
variables.
GNU make actually looks for ‘GNUmakefile’, not ‘GNUMakefile’.
Consequently, GNU make would erroneously attempt to use the standard
makefile, instead of the GNU-specific one. This would cause an error
when attempting to import png.h, due to PNGFLAGS not being correctly
set.
