Still the error message sucks, even if you substitute any other
token in place of the double colon. There is no context given
(listing the line in question and placing a ^ below the current
position would be of great help), and sometimes there are even
general "parse errors" messages, no reason given at all.
This seems to need a bit of work, I believe.
