janwas 37663d86fb # bugfixes: prevent incorrect FPU results due to 0-length files, and incorrect file caching due to timestamps delayed by long sojourn in the debugger.
file_cache: avoid caching 0-length files (prevents div by 0)
adts: bit more defensiveness against size=0
trace: now use "dividers" in the trace file instead of relying on
monotony property of the get_time source. this avoids incorrectly
splitting the trace into runs when time is actually not monotonous
(which would cause lots of warnings), e.g. due to debugger.
in the process, changed interface to return (most-recent first) runs,
instead of only the raw unsorted entries.

This was SVN commit r3832.
