"""Check for errs in the AST.

The Python parser does not catch all syntax errors. Others, like
|
|
assignments with invalid targets, are caught in the code generation
|
|
phase.
|
|
|
|
The compiler package catches some errors in the transformer module.
|
|
But it seems clearer to write checkers that use the AST to detect
|
|
errors.
