Interesting. This reminded me quite a bit of eb57277ba3 (midx: prevent
writing a .bitmap without any objects, 2022-02-09) which tackled a
similar problem of trying to write a MIDX bitmap without any objects.
We may want to consider moving that conditional further up, since this
makes the conditional added in eb57277ba3 dead code AFAICT. Here's a
patch on top of this one that I think would do the trick.
It has the added benefit of sticking a:
warning: unknown preferred pack: 'does-not-exist'
in the output before dying, which might be nice (though I doubt anybody
will ever see it ;-)). The main difference is that we unset the bitmap
related bits from `flags`, which avoids us trying to compute a preferred
pack in the first place.
For it to work, though, we need to make sure that ctx.preferred_pack_idx
is set to -1, and not zero-initialized, since we'll segfault otherwise
when trying to read into an empty array.
