I do builds all the time -- I've probably done several
hundred -- and
I don't generally have this problem when things error out.
The only
time I've seen error messages "vanish" this way is
when I fail to do a
make clean before re-building, and that usually only happens
if I'm
not using build.sh.

You can grep through our source tree -- that's not happening
here.

That does indeed look like a bug -- thank you for spotting
it -- but I
suspect that is not, in fact, what is causing your issue. In
any case,
I'll see about fixing it.

So do I.  Maybe 5 a year since 1995.  I agree, there is
usually more
meat to the output for an abend.  But google (for "***
Error code 1")
shoes lossage of error information to not be unique to me. 
(Notice how mtree collapses all error information to 0/1 in
its
return value, a minor but not unique example).

Anyway, I repeated with build.sh, using this command line:

./build.sh -U -u -D /home/destdir -R /home/release 
	-T /tooldir.NetBSD-3.1_STABLE-i386  release  2>&1 |

	tee /home/make.Friday.txt

with environment: (some unrelated stuff snipped away)

SHELL=/bin/ksh
BLOCKSIZE=1k
RELEASEDIR=/home/release
MKUPDATE=yes
DESTDIR=/home/destdir
ENV=/root/.kshrc

The build abended in the same place.  Same error, more error
messages
this time.  I am repeating the experiment now with an
altered mtree,
just for sport.

Output (last 75 or so lines, more on request).
