I thought you'd like to know, with generator and Shining Force (I) anytime you answer "no" to a question, it's treated as a yes. This causes an unfortunate inescapable loop after the fight against Kane when you go back to Rudo and talk to Krin as she won't stop asking you where the manual is (because it's impossible to tell her that you don't have the manual.)
I've yet to try an older binary to see if the problem is new or old.
I've tried this with two seperate Shining Force roms (one smd, one bin) and I had the same problem with both.

Try to switch the region type and/or switch PAL/NTSC. Some games do weird stuff, sometimes this helps. E.g., Hulk stops at the first screen when you use the wrong settings but immediately continues once you switch it...and stops again if you switch back... Funny region check, I'd say. ;)

Or try the new GCC compiler 3.4.0. Maybe it was caused by a compiler bug.
