patch to correct the errorhandling-errors

There are two errors in function Sys_ErrorDialog() in code/sys/sys_unix.c.
This function tries to write to ~/.q3a/baseq3/crashlog.txt.
If its directory doesn't yet exist, it tries to create it and fails.
The first error is to use the filename of the file
and not its directory-name, so it creates a directory "crashlog.txt".
The second error is that it doesn't create all the parent-directories
should these be missing.
Attached is a patch which corrects these errors.
