CF 9: Misleading Error Message "The specified CFC XXX could not be found"

I have noticed that the CF 9.0.1 error message

The specified CFC XXX could not be found.

The path to the CFC must be specified as a full path, or as a relative path from the current template, without the use of mappings.

must not necessarily mean that CF cannot found the CFC!

The error message apparently occurs even if there is a syntactical error in the cfc program code.

That is somewhat misleading!

    This behavior occurs only If I put a <cfapplication> tag on my cfm page.
    When I put the <cfapplication> tag in an explicit file Application.cfm, cfc syntax error messages appears correctly.
    Maybe just a problem with my configuration (IIS7), but perhaps an indication...
