I just wanted to offer my thanks and appreciation to whoever improved the traceback and error handling of cgen.
In the past, it was extremely painful to modify (or create a cpu description), because the error recovery didn't do a very good job of reporting the actual issues. I'm doing a new machine description and the error handling is AWESOME.
It really increases my productivity and I no longer have to comment out great chunks of the cpu file to try and isolate my mistakes.
