Hey folks,
I get the following error message when attempting to compile my book,
but it doesn't appear to say what file / line number is responsible. Is
there a way to turn on file / line error messages, akin to what one sees
with gcc?

such a message comes from stored macros so there is no such information

So when you have a book of hundreds of pages in length split up over
dozens of tex files and ConTeXt emits an error, how do you know what
file / line number to examine?

Usually the strategy is to isolate the culprit by including progressively
lengthy chunks of tex
from the begin to end
and then narrowing the selection until you find a macro or paragraph.
Then surround it with
\tracingall
...
\trancingnone
and you have a *huge* amount of informations.
(btw, discover where an error happens it's known to be problematic due
the inherently asynchronous nature of TeX
and the macro programming language, where expansion can be very hard to
understand)

That sounds very tedious and is definitely a major problem with ConTeXt.
But like you said, it's difficult to alleviate based on how all of its
components were designed.

use a complex macro format
