Line numbers in json error messages don't correspond to actual line numbers

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. insert an extra comma somewhere in a valid json catalog
2. load the catalog
3. observe the line number
4. go to that line in a text editor
5. observe no error at that location

A workaround is to use another json interpreter to read the erroneous catalog 
and provide an accurate line and character count.
e.g. 
python -mjson.tool < test.json > test_out.json
(which requires python v2.6 or later)

What version of the product are you using? 
r231
On what operating system?
win7 pro sp1 x64

This appears to be a bug in the QJson library: http://qjson.sourceforge.net/

Unfortunately, I'm not sure how to go about submitting a problem report
myuself, since I don't really program in C++ and am not at all familiar
with Qt. I.e. it'd difficult for me to provide them with a repeatable
failing example.
