Joe Hendrix d2b81d3c2f Fixes for jump table tests.
* Update macaw-x86-tests to build properly.
* Fix off by two error in memMapOverwrite
* Introduce some special handling for unsigned-extension in stack
  analysis so it knows one value is the unsigned extension of another.
* Error report formating improvements
* Slightly more precise treatment of archfn is bound updates.

This directory contains some automated tests for macaw-x86.  The tests
currently cover the code discovery implementation in macaw.
Specifically, they check:

1) That the correct number of functions are found,
2) Each function starts at the expected address,
3) Each function contains the correct number of basic blocks,
4) Each basic block starts at the expected address

The ``Makefile`` in the tests directory rebuilds the test files from
source.  The resulting binaries are checked in to the repository so
that Mac OS users can run the tests without having to have a Linux
build toolchain available.  Additionally, having the binaries in the
repository keeps the code layout stable.  Expected addresses are
hard-coded into the expected results of the test suite; regenerating
the binaries on a different system or with a different compiler could
change the offsets in the test binaries, which would require the
expected results to be tweaked.  This is unfortunate, but difficult to
avoid in a robust way.

Note that the tests are bare-bones and do not link against libc.  They
issue the exit system call directly to terminate.  This lets us get
small and comprehensible test cases.
