ParseException still show as a "Parse error". I don't plan to change that one. Instead of the relatively aggressive message changes described above I've only landed a small tweak (see https://github.com/php/php-src/commit/3ae995f03c8f60c4a4c9718262545cf5a6a08da3), which fixes the problem with nested quotes but keeps current structure.
