FWIW, this isn't going to work. Its checking the sanity in
"configuration" space, pre recipe parse so it won't pick up on the
errors we want it to.

So whilst its well intentioned, it isn't going to work as designed and
we'll have to rethink it. I can't think of a good way to fix it right
now, we don't really have a structure for recipe checks at this point.

Cheers,
