Print an error message and return instead of crash
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
When the address of a symbol couldn't be found, the app should return
instead of crash. The address is validated by the caller, which returns
false if address is NULL. Eventually the loader gets the error message,
and reverts back to the previous good image.
