Here's another really simple one that just cropped up:

 | public plot, pi, degsgran, circle, blob;
 | 
 | def pi=4*atan 1;

PI is a useful thing to have, of course, but with a typo like the above
(failure to remove the leading `def' whilst converting to lowercase) I get

 | zsh, trough  8:08PM scot-pics/ % ./map.q 
 | ! Value mismatch in definition

with no file:line-number, and, critically, execution continues regardless.
