Something I also mentioned much earlier on the mailing list is it
could just be a define in some config.h file or so about whether to
abort(), call some user error handler, or throw exception, (or some
other method of throwing up,) as that would satisfy all, could just
default to abort() or what-not to match the general (llvm-gcc?) case.

And why would it not be possible to just delete the module (or have it
self delete in the exception handler) so you can gracefully make
another and continue parsing another module?
