You missed the warnings..., but I'll integrate this into the next patch.
However, there is no real advantage at the moment (other than that emacs
will jump to the correct line) because error reporting of wrc is
completely broken. It only reports "syntax error" and the linenumber
might be off. A real fix, as mentioned before, would be to implement
error token parsing and report a more useful message. But this is not
easy to do (take a look at wmc's parser and you know what I mean; there
I implemented error token parsing to generate informative messages).
