And with trunk we print:

pr52964.cc: In instantiation of ‘struct S1<4>’:
pr52964.cc:2:49:   required from ‘struct S2<int>’
pr52964.cc:3:45:   required from ‘void foo(T) [with T = int]’
pr52964.cc:4:21:   required from here
pr52964.cc:1:43: error: size of array is negative
 template <int N> struct S1 { int arr[N - 5]; };
                                           ^

We could easily print the caret for each line. And the locations could be much
better.

I also like more the order of Clang and the extra info about what each thing
is, but we would have to convince Gabriel and/or Jason.

David, what else do you see that could be improved?
