If you are interested in a project like this, then I would recommend
improving Octave itself so that it can give better error messages, or
more information when parsing a file rather than writing a separate
tool with its own parser.

This has been discussed before on the maintainers list and I think
some basic profiling code has been posted. I'm not sure of the
status, but I have not looked at it.
