You're welcome.

A good start point is diagnostic.[ch]. There are lots of duplicate
code there, and they should go away. Next is cp/error.c.
Eventually, pointer hackering in cp/errfn.c should go.
Then, make the tree formatting machinery available to the C front-end.

Yes, the patch sent some days ago is being updated. We can discuss
that offline you wish.
