2. Descriptions of Revision
2.1 Functions Introduced
 (1) Checking errors of the cfg308 configurator
     - An error message is delivered to terminate the processing if any 
       non-kernel interrupt is defined and the configuration file 
       in which the value of the kernel interrupt mask level (system_IPL) is 
       set to 7 is dealt with.
     - An option is introduced which delivers an error or warning message 
       if the kernel interrupt mask level (system_IPL) of the configuration file 
       in a system where no non-kernel interrupt is requested is set 
       to any value except 7.
 (2) Checking errors of the GUI configurator
     An error message is delivered if any non-kernel interrupt is 
     defined and the value of the kernel interrupt mask level (system_IPL) is 
     set to 7.
