Someone else wrote most of it, I was only trying to make it work good
enough to enable. There are a few things in play here:
- the parser doesn't report errors as much as a compiler like mcs
which can be misleading
- highlighting the correct portion of a line given a line + column of
the error needs to be fairly intelligent
- gtksourceview syntax highlighting conflicts with the error underline
drawing
- normal bugs, lack of testing
