The current code in Parser/asdl.py doesn't handle syntax errors very well. A minor problem to be sure, since the net result is the same (i.e. build fails), but the error message being displayed is entirely unhelpful to the developer. The attached patch will display the error message as was seemingly intended. This probably affects earlier versions (including python-trunk), but I haven't tested.

Some comments: - Since you check for a false mod before calling check(), the check in check() will not be reached. - The error print seems to be already in trunk.
