Thinking on the verbose output, I think that to have the real output redirected to the screen isn't actually required or useful except to know that the build system is alive and doing something, true?

For me personally, yes, you are right about that. It's just something to look at while it's building. I could tail the log file but you can't tail files that don't exist yet unless you write a script of some sort that loops and restarts tail when a new file is present. Having default output is just easier for me is all.

And as always, I can easily modify the master scripts to add 'tee' for myself if this doesn't end up in the main code. As usual I just share what I'd like to see and if the default isn't going to do that, I just create a patch. No big deal. :)
