Better error message for running szbuild.py out of directory.

I would use one of these strings instead:

  print "Script must be executed from within 'native_client' directory"
  print 'Script must be executed from within \'native_client\' directory'
  print 'Script must be executed from within <native_client> directory'

+        exit(1)
     last_index = len(path_list) - path_list[::-1].index(nacl)
     return os.sep.join(path_list[:last_index])
