You know how long the output of a buildworld is, right??
When the errors are reported, visually it is at the point where it normally
looks like it is done.

Building ports gives you notice of the directory in which it started to come up
from thus telling you which package was in error.....

Maybe I'll see if I can put something like this in make of the makefiles....
