FWIW, I think even in the case that the total message (error + context) is more
than can fit at one time on the current terminal window, it is advantageous to
have the fixed length part (error) first, and then the variable length part
(context) next.

At least that way you'll know the error is always at the top, instead of at
some point between the end of the compile line and the next prompt.
