Done.

I removed the error message again. It was wrong in several ways.

There is no need for the expression to evaluate to a value > 1000000000.
(int)main may be negative.

Actually I'm not convinced that these two casts must be supported outside
of functions. Section 6.6 in C99 draft N869 does not talk about casting
address constants to integers. It does allow implemetations to accept
other constant expressions, though.

I don't think we should add checks for all variants of invalid code.
IMHO the main focus should be on correctly compiling valid code.
Otherwise we'll soon have a not so tiny TinyCC.
