Given the file

    A                          (2 FOO @ 10.00 EUR) = 20.00 EUR
    B

ledger v3 produces

| While parsing posting:
|   A                          (2 FOO @ 10.00 EUR) = 20.00 EUR
|                              ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
| Error: Missing ')'

whereas ledger v2 shows:

| While parsing transaction amount:
|       A                          (2 FOO @ 10.00 EUR) = 20.00 EUR
|                                         ^
| Error: "d.dat", line 2: Invalid char '@' (wanted ')')

I find the error message from v2 much more useful because it actually
tells you what it doesn't like.  The v3 message is quite confusing
because there is a closing bracket.
