Has the nds-bootstrap logo screen appeared when launching those ROMs for the first time?

As far as I'm aware, it did appear, yes. In the case of Spirit Tracks, it crashes with an "Error: Data Abort!" screen.

Tried the translation patch for Phantom Hourglass (which has the same behavior as the original ROM) again with both newest release (as well as v2.7.1 and v2.7.2) and latest nightly (631f144), same result :(

This is the logfile with debugging enabled. I left it loading for 2 to 3 minutes to see if there's anything that can help solve the issue, but sadly, no dice. Not even the loading screen appeared. I'm so sorry for bugging y'all with this.
