Nyet ... but I don't think tacking an offset onto the end of
"parse error at or near foo" messages is likely to cause the
sort of generalized havoc you suggest ...
I'm on record as favoring a thorough redesign of the error-reporting
facility, and I hope to see that happen in conjunction with a frontend
protocol change in 7.4. But I think your proposed change in this patch
is fairly harmless and could be done now.
