Some basic syntax errors can be detected with condor_config_val or any 
other command that reads the config file.  However, this reads the 
config file without any knowledge of the meaning of the configuration 
variables, so it will not catch things like invalid values or broken 
ClassAd expressions.  All it does is read in the config file as a 
sequence of key=value pairs.
There is some work going on to revamp Condor's configuration subsystem.  
This would make it possible to do more complete checks of the validity 
of the config file.
