failonerror; general solution

[Jan Schroeder]

There are a few new entries in bugzilla regarding handling of 
BuildExceptions.

Also, some tasks already implement some "failonerror" attribute (e.g. 
<java>).

What about creating a container task instead.
Like:
<nofail failureproperty="part.failed">
   <patch .../>
   <echo ../>
   <antcall />
</nofail>
That way all tasks automatically have something like "failonerror" + you 
actually know if the part failed and can take an appropriate build path 
from here on.
