I was referring more to messages that show the reason of the failure 
such as fpcres not found, duplicate resource xxxx, etc...

On the other hand, the error line seems to always point to the last line 
of the lpr file, even when the error is in another file/unit (example: 
unit with {$R *.lfm} twice).
