Hello Magnus:
> The new COMPARE_BUILD feature has proven valuable to build system
> development. However, after use it leaves the build system in a
> different state than prior to use, which requires manual intervention
> for multiple runs.
>
> This patch fixes so that the build system is restored to the starting
> point (except for unhandled crashes, e.g. in configure). It also moves
> some error handling logic to InitSupport.gmk so it does not clutter
> Init.gmk.
