Thanks very much for the pointer: in fact, I thought I'd already tried that
solution, but I clearly hadn't (or had reverted the try). It works
beautifully. I concur with the suggestion in bug #695282 that this should
be the Debian default, and perhaps upstream could be encouraged to look at
what would be required to make it the upstream default? (At least MikTeX
also supports -file-line-error, so parsing the name of the LaTeX
interpreter and turning on -file-line-error if it's TeX Live or MikTeX
would be a good start.)
