i remember brining this error reporting question up a while ago ....
http://lists.xml.org/archives/xml-dev/200212/msg00323.html
http://lists.xml.org/archives/xml-dev/200212/msg00642.html
A quick google search of the archives (the xml-dev search engine being broken,
unfortunately), yielded the preceding and following postentially interesting posts:
http://lists.xml.org/archives/xml-dev/200305/msg00841.html
http://lists.xml.org/archives/xml-dev/200012/msg00353.html
... and related follow-ups (and pre-follow-ups -- I might have caught some of
these in the middle).
Hope this is helpful --
