The code for this is not big (maybe 200 lines), but in the past
it often caused trouble when new features were implemented,
and it is difficult to test, so I'd appreciate to remove the support 
for overlapping tiles in a given split-file.

Is it okay to remove the support and print something like
"Error: Support for overlapping tiles in split-files was removed in version r36x."
or should splitter print a warning to stderr like 
"Warning : Support for overlapping tiles will be removed in future releases"
for a while ?
