Hi Benjamin, i'm very much aginst this kind of error handling.
First of all, i think the user of pig (or the caller of 
PigServer#registerQuery()) should be in control wether or not he want to stop 
the execution of his process when the registration of a query failed. I think 
in a lot of cases the user wants to fail fast. Grunt represents the other side. 
So if this error handling is appropriate for grunt, it should move to grunt.

Secondly the 2 log statments would lead to duplicate logging, would'nt they ?
