This is here because eslint doesn't play well with top-level await yet.

Yeah, this is not good. Do you think there is a way to distinguish this without having to parse the entire file?

err.message = 'Top-Level await is only supported in ESM.';
err.stack = err.stack.replace(/SyntaxError:.*\n/,
`SyntaxError: ${err.message}\n`);
}
throw err;
}
