+      * previously, the whole expression gets coded as an error (there's only one errror in the errors vector, regardless of the AST representation)
+      * what we want is to have each error added to the vector (and just to return a poisoned AST node, whatever the kind)

 	Other quick thoughts:
 	* Once I get this far, then it's time to wire up the interpreter (with hard-coded functions, and the beginning of static analysis)
