Here's some code incorrectly defining a macro, because it's missing a fragment specifier. Playground
Here's the error message rustc gives me:
It's potentially confusing that the error points to the source after the name with the missing fragment specifier. Especially in a complicated macro, it would be better if it pointed to the item which was actually missing the fragment specifier.
