glGetUniformLocation fails in confinement mode

[Spencer]

Oh, you're right!  I don't know why I silently fail when the file doesn't exist.  That was stupid.

And I can see that I'm installing all resource files except for the shaders directory.  That's the problem.

My bad; I'm an idiot.  Thanks.  I'll resnap later today after work when I get the chance between toddler screams and house work.
