[svn-r6046] Purpose:
Improvement Description: fillval will fail to find the pre-exist data file if it is run in --srcdir mode without setting $srcdir properly. This is setup properly in the Makefile but unsuspecting users trying just ./fillval were puzzled by the failure. Solution: put in a more descriptive error message with a possible remedy. Platforms tested: Modi4 only since this is just adding a printf statment.
