description:
base: calls abort() from fatal
Currently fatal() ends the simulation in a normal fashion. This
results in
the call stack getting lost when using a debugger and it is not always
possible to debug the simulation just from the information provided by
the
printed error message. Even though the error is likely due to a user's
fault,
the information available should not be thrown away. Hence, this patch
to
call abort() from fatal().
