We could, yes.  Then the rules would be

* compiler is the name of the compiler adapter to use unless fork has
been specified.

* compiler is the name of the executable if fork is used.

Which would again be overloading an attribute with two meanings.  Put
that together with 

<compilerarg ... compiler="extJavac" />

which you'd have to use in forked execution ...

I think a new attribute would be better.  I'll implement it that way
and we can merge them to a single attribute if this should turn out to
be consensus.
