Then you'll have to get used to people ignoring your bug reports.  Tango is 
maintained by a core team of about 3 people, all of whom have real lives and 
real jobs.  They just don't have the time or manpower to collate bug reports 
from all over the web.

Also, this is a runtime error.  Try throwing _any_ exception and you'll 
notice that no file or line is given.  In order to know where an exception 
occurred, either the language has to have some kind of built-in support 
whereby it will pass the file and line of the 'throw' statement to the 
exception's constructor (which it doesn't), or you have to have a traceback 
mechanism (which, by default, does not exist).  Apparently you can get 
traced exceptions in Tango by using flectioned; I've never used it.
