I agree having more information about the location of the problem is
desirable.  The problem is that the error was only expected to hit at
locview asserts, that check that the view at the point is zero.  In this
case, you don't even have a symbol name, just the literal constant zero.

That it hit in a different situations in which there was symbolic
information just goes to show how unexpected and broken it was for ia64
bundles.
