We do this
 if {[catch {
	set q [eval exec "$javac [list $file] -d $objdir 2>@ stdout"]
 } msg]} then {
	verbose "couldn't compile $file: $msg"
so compile failures only go into the log if verbose is set.
This looks deliberate, but it is a weird thing to do. I don't know
why we don't just send all byte compiler ouput to the log.
