Or would you expect to get just the location and "Error running javac compiler" printed out. I see that in BuildException.java it says "cause [...] may be null", but my question is, in this particular case (Java exception-wise), would you expect it to be? (It's also not clear to my why the javac compiler is being run from something called executeExternalCompiler, but I'll pass on that for now.)
