Ah, that certainly helps.

So I've implemented a basic version of this - all I did was find where
we handle the crash pragma, added another "parser_crash" and inserted
a token (annot_pragma_parser_crash) into the stream. Then I found
where that crashed in the parser & added an explicit check/crash for
it. This still means you'll get arbitrary behavior/crashes if you use
this pragma elsewhere - is that acceptable "invalid" behavior for such
an implementation detail, or should I make this more robust in some
way?

Attached is the parser_crash support, test case (testing only the file
extension mentioned in the crash report - is there some way I could
actually open that file from within lit so I could FileCheck it? I
guess that's just not worth the effort?) and the original
functionality I'd sent for review.
