I've tried redirecting standard output/error, both /bin/sh and /bin/csh,

doesn't crater the build. You would think that --batch would make this
happen, but no go.
While I know screen(1) has a lot of devotees, you could almost
certainly use nohup for this same purpose, with the pleasant side
effect that you will have a log of what happened on disk in case
something blows up.
Screen also has log functionality.
Toggle with: Ctrl+A, then Shift+H
You can also use "script" to capture the output fairly easily.
