The message should specify "decimal integer literals" instead of "integral values." Hex literals often have leading zeros: 0x00FF. Unexpectedly, hex literals are accepted with no leading digits at all:

scala> 0x
res13: Int = 0

Or should one say, "unhexpectedly."

I would be in favor of deprecating this. One less weird thing people new to the language can trip over.

Instead of "leading zero is not allowed," it should say, "misleading zero is not allowed."
