For anyone who likes puzzles, I'd recommend reading the code that deals with
all that DA/DU stuff in javac.
I prototyped a language change in javac last year, and spent more time on
understanding and subtly changing that code *just to get a better error
message* than I did on anything else.
All Neal's fault actually - nobody else complained about my diagnostic
messages ;)
