Description

When the XX compiler detects an error, typical output might be

Compiling stylesheet /Users/mike/GitHub/saxon-js-enterprise/src/test/testdriver/testdriverNodeJS.xsl
Failed to compile stylesheet: No binding for variable Q{}message-level
Error XPST0008 at static.xsl#1057
    Failed to compile stylesheet:
Error XPST0008 at static.xsl#1057
    No binding for variable Q{}message-level

Several problems here:

(a) there's no indication of where we are in the stylesheet being compiled

(b) We don't need to know the location in the compiler where the error was detected (static.xsl#1057)

(c) We certainly don't need to be told twice.

Note: the actual error was a static variable being referenced before the declaration.
