Hi Cricket,

I call that a "work around".
What we need is a program to parse the named configuration file
(and all included files) and print any error on stderr.
I wonder why such a program doesn't exist yet.
By the way, I started to dig in the source. I think this is something
easy to do but honestly I am quite busy. I will take the time soon or
later :-/ to dig in this but if someone else wants to give it a try,
let me know.
