There are a lot of "errors" that should be converted
to buildexceptions.

examples are "NoClassDefFoundError", "VerifyError" etc

Fair enough, but notice that the fix to <subant> failonerror
(or is it the keepGoing global switch) will swallow Errors.

In any case, is there concensus to do at least the RuntimeExceptions.

Why don't you feel comfortable catching Errors?


Since Errors should only be thrown in unrecoverable situations (that's the theory, I know).

I don't think that Ant should continue after an OutOfMemoryError for example There are others and we'll never manage to enumerate all Throwables that we don't want to catch.
