Comment #9 on issue 2172 by [email protected]: Get line and column numbers right. http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=2172
Regarding comment #7: see comment #3. None of the diagnostics is new, and several would warrant fixing. However, just that the column number in the diagnostics was changed by this patch to the correct column does not mean that this patch or issue is responsible for fixing any of those.
