That was actually an interesting idea. It could be worth adding to the build system. However, adding an extra exec for all commands has a performance penalty, especially on Windows. (I'm not also sure how well the lock semantics are respected on cygwin.)
So, we could probably not make such a solution default, and then it really won't help David's problem: that people are sending him the build logs post-factum and hoping he can distangle them.
