Details:

If an add-on contains certain kinds (?) of syntax errors, they will not cause
an error dialog to pop up at loading time, and will only be listed in stderr.
Furthermore, because of the error the game will still make a mess of some
things internally, leading to completely unrelated false positives to
potentially appear.

Attached is an example campaign where the actual syntax error
(Bug_Test/scenario.cfg:22) isn't being reported in an error dialog, but a
completely unrelated false positive "unknown unit type" error pops up
instead.

I haven't been able to reproduce the problem with mainline campaigns; it seems
this only happens in add-ons. I also haven't tried to narrow down which kinds
of syntax errors are affected.
