Another example of tough errors to find:
ettin:/var/cf-masterfiles/config/trunk/inputs# cf-promises -f
./promises.cf
Scalar variable src contains itself (non-convergent): ${src}
Scalar variable src contains itself (non-convergent): ${src}
Without file and line numbers this is tough to find.

As a wish list topic the error message output from this could be more
explicit. It took me quite some time adding and removing promises until I
isolated this error.
Sincerely,
