I agree, I still think the total latex + rubber behaviour is somewhat
strange in this case, but I understand that it is more a peculiarity
than a bug.

I must apologize. I tested it again and indeed found that rubber returns
error code 1. I must have made some mistake last time I checked, though
I don't know how. Now I know that rubber returns a good error code I can
easily modify the builder to clean up in case of errors.
So both bugs can be closed IMHO and thanks for all the help/explanation
from both of you.
