Kirby's Dream Collection: an in-progress Wii decompilation

Kirby's Dream Collection is a work-in-progress decompilation of the USA Rev 0 Wii release. Its build uses reconstructed C and C++ source and an owner's disc image to produce main.dol. The tree includes symbols and splits and generates objdiff configuration for comparing rebuilt object files with the original.
