------------------------------------------------
Oracle Javac error/warning message format changed between Java 1.6 and 1.7. I
don't remember details. Check Java version when analyzing messages.
> "Compilation failure" message should say what actually went wrong

> I tried to build jruby 9.0.5.0, which uses Maven to run the build. It fails
> to compile, but gives me a useless error message:
> [ERROR] Failed to execute goal
> org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-compiler-plugin:3.1:compile (default-compile)
> on project jruby-core: Compilation failure -> [Help 1]
> When compilation fails, Maven should tell me what actually went wrong, so
> that I can fix it.
