Tolerate bad directories in the code path
A bad directory in the path would prevent the run-time system from starting: $ echo >foobar $ erl -pa foobar {"init terminating in do_boot",{load_failed,[supervisor,kernel,gen_server,file_io_server,filename,file,erl_parse,error_logger,code_server,erl_lint,proc_lib,code,application_controller,application_master,gen_event,application,error_handler,lists,heart,gen,file_server,ets,erl_eval]}} Crash dump is being written to: erl_crash.dump...done init terminating in do_boot () The reason is that when attempting to read each of the BEAM files, there would be an 'enotdir' error which erl_prim_load:get_modules/2,3 assumed was a fatal error. Update erl_prim_load:get_modules/2,3 to ignore any error and try the next directory in the path. Reported-by: http://bugs.erlang.org/browse/ERL-142 Reported-by: Michael Truog
