Personally, I don't bother with the cast shorthand unless I'm using
Hilfe. Try this:

void compile_error(string fn,int l,string msg) { }
void compile_warning(string fn,int l,string msg) { }
program is_compilable(string filename)
{
    program ret=UNDEFINED;
    catch {ret=compile_file(filename,this);};
    return ret;
}

That'll suppress the errors, courtesy of the 'handler' parameter to
compile_file().
