While I'd totally agree with this, there are times that it's a memory
allocation problem which causes the problem and it needs to be on page
912 before you see it. I remember when I was involved in getting the 0.9
release out of the door there were times when this sort of problem
occured and you needed a (sometimes) huge document before you saw it.
