[Maypole] Maypole's error (mis)handling

If there is just one thing about Maypole that really makes it hard to work
with, it's the error handling - or lack thereof.

When working with Maypole, I find it silently dropping errors, leaving me
staring at a Error 500 web page with no apparent cause.
As a result, I seem to be ending up back at the old "print lots of warn
messages" so I can see how far into a subroutine the code executed before
suffering from alien abduction and just... disappearing without a trace.

Is there something I'm missing, which I could use to try and re-enable error
reporting? There is nothing that I can find in the FAQs, although I have
noticed other people mentioning the problem via Google, albeit without a fix.

I'm aware this may in fact be my own fault, somehow, but I'm at a loss to
figure out what I'm doing wrong.

thanks in advance,

tjc
