The error message is not helpful at all. I was recently struggling to understand why/where some code was failing with syntax error – and it took me a while to find it. And with this message, I had also to find out what did go wrong.
How about: ("Unexpected junk after %s at %L", expr->n.symtree->sym->name, &expr->where)? – or "Unexpected junk in reference to %s at %L"?
Or deviating from your current error messages: ""Inconsistent use of %s at %L"
(Side note: I think we have the general problem that expr->where does not start after the white space, which can be slightly confusing.)
