OR subclass PatternLayout and add a setIgnoresThrowable(). Then use this
subclass in your console appender definition and add a property to disable:
...
log4j.appender.console.layout=com.mydomain.MyPatternLayout
log4j.appender.console.layout.IgnoresThrowable=false
...
(or whatever the XML equivalent is)
This approach would allow you to apply this behaviour to other appenders if
you wanted to later.
