've seen a good number of errors lately in logs & such on the forum, speaking of "F:\tinderbox", etc, such as here:
viewtopic.php?f=6&t=67201#p317927"
Curious, what is that path referring to?
What is F:\tinderbox?

Code path on the build system. Just one of those stupid error messages that confuse more than assist.

It may not assist the user, but it certainly assists the devs. It tells them exactly where to find the source code line that generated the error. Useful if you have a large source code tree to navigate, and an error that could be produced by multiple modules.

Maybe "tinderbox" for where to light the fire on the new build, then?
Thanks!
