But who would consume a compilation report and why?  The enduring value of a 
compilation report is even less than that of a JUnit report.

I have visions of truckloads of source code statements, lined up and waiting to be 
dumped into a giant chute, swirling, sucking loud machinery crunching it up and 
ejecting shiny blocks of byte code at the other end.

How do they do things where you work?  Don't developers rebase/update/resync their 
view/workspace and then compile stuff locally before checking in/delivering?  I'm not 
criticizing your suggestion so much as pushing for more details about the development 
process that would make such a report valuable.  Just curious (plus it's Friday, so 
what the hell).
