+ * Error message fix: replace "file position" with "offset" in
+ error messages that report lexical or parsing errors. Sometimes
+ it's an offset in an object stream or a content stream rather than
+ a file position, so this makes the error message less confusing in
+ those cases. It still requires some knowledge to find the exact
+ position of the error, since when it's not a file offset, it's
+ probably an offset into a stream after uncompressing it.
+
* Error message fix: correct some cases in which the object that
contained a lexical error was omitted from the error message.
