For at least on mac, the output of build-webkit is incredibly verbose. This makes finding build failures difficult either on your machine, or more importantly, on a mac EWS bot that normally has to truncate the build output log for whatever reason.

I've seen (and heard of) scripts floating around that filter the output to just show the important error details. These should be incorporated into the build-webkit script and be used on the bots. Hey, it might even shave off a little time per run on the bots to not have to hit the disk so much!
