MLton may be slow .. but it is no longer a question of
overnight turnaround and printed diagnostics.

I'm not sure what you mean by 'report as many errors as possible',
but literally taken this is a very bad idea, a hangover from
computing in the '60s and '70s.

When you find an error, it may be necessary to 'unwind' the
call chain until there is enough context to report the
error sensibly .. but you should *never* continue!

IMNSHO .. :)
