Placeholder String

Each game file containing a text bank has this single placeholder string that was not removed.

ELF Executable

Also only in the GameCube release is a 200MB ELF executable with debug symbols named gof_f.elf. It appears to be the retail executable, as the MD5 hash matches with main.dol after stripping the symbols and converting it to a dol file.
