>From maven -h :

...
 -E,--emacs        Produce logging information without adornments
...
 -e,--exception    Produce exception stack traces

Thus, you can't use E option.

Environment: any platform, executed from within a pre-existing JVM

Description:
Currently, when maven completes, it returns some error level, which allows users to 
adjust the behavior of their scripts accordingly (as in the case of cron jobs and 
such, I would imagine).  It accomplishes this task by calling System.exit(status) with 
the appropriate status code for the exit state of maven. Typically, this is a 
_good_thing_.

However, when maven is called from within a running JVM, the System.exit() calls must 
be parried with some sort of SecurityManager or such, in order to keep the maven 
completion from bringing down the entire JVM and larger application. Another way 
around this is to spawn a new JVM for each maven execution, but this is unacceptably 
high in overhead, especially given the execution delay typically experienced while 
maven works its magic behind the scenes.

My proposal is simple: create an embedded mode for maven, wherein System.exit() calls 
are supressed.

In a typical application plugin, maven should be called by invoking Forehead with the 
proper configuration. This avoids the duplication of complex classloader logic, and 
maintains a single point of maintenance for the maven bootstrap process. In order to 
create an embedded mode, all that need be done is to add an option to the CLI parsing, 
(-E), and a boolean member variable in App.java which denotes which execution mode 
we're running in.  Then, in the exit(status) method of App.java, simply insert 
conditional logic to check the execution mode, and supress System.exit() in embedded 
mode. The rest of maven need not be touched in any way.

I am attaching a patch to this issue, which incorporates my ideas in concrete code.
