No, I really do mean ERROR_VARIABLE (unless, of course, this variable does not 
include the non-zero exit status of the EXECUTE_PROCESS command?).

BTW, I'm still curious about the (dual 'code') construct generally. 
Specifically, if I do the following I never see the fatal error message (so I'm 
wondering if there's still something wrong regarding the scoping of the message 
command)?
 
   install (CODE "EXECUTE_PROCESS (
      COMMAND ant ...
      WORKING_DIRECTORY ${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/java
      ERROR_VARIABLE _err
   )
   MESSAGE( FATAL_ERROR \"err: ${_err}\")

BTW, the following doesn't work either (each of the variables is empty):

   install (CODE "EXECUTE_PROCESS (
      COMMAND ant ...
      WORKING_DIRECTORY ${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/java
      OUTPUT_VARIABLE _out
      ERROR_VARIABLE _err
      RESULT_VARIABLE _res
   )
   Install (CODE "MESSAGE( STATUS \"out: ${_out}, err: ${_err}, res: 
${_res}...\")")
