Robert Scholte commented on MCOMPILER-274:
------------------------------------------
I see in you configuration {{[DEBUG] (f) fork = true}}, which means that the
output is parsed and analyzed, hence there are no Exception Objects as you
might expect. I've improved the parsing, so maybe this is already fixed in the
current 3.6-SNAPSHOT.
Did you discover the real cause?

> I tried to build jruby 9.0.5.0, which uses Maven to run the build. It fails
> to compile, but gives me a useless error message:
> [ERROR] Failed to execute goal
> org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-compiler-plugin:3.1:compile (default-compile)
> on project jruby-core: Compilation failure -> [Help 1]
> When compilation fails, Maven should tell me what actually went wrong, so
> that I can fix it.
