Not surprisingly, I am not the only person who has had this problem. See
http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/CONTINUUM-413 where the suggested
solution is:

if "%MAVEN_TERMINATE_CMD%" == "on" exit %ERRORLEVEL%
exit /b %ERRORLEVEL%

There are 12 lines involved in our .bat files:

build.bat:35:exit /b %E%
builddoc.bat:40:exit /b
builddoc.bat:50:exit /b
install.bat:9:exit /b 1
install.bat:18:exit /b %ERRORLEVEL%
vcregress.bat:35: if errorlevel 1 exit /b 1
vcregress.bat:51:exit /b %E%
vcregress.bat:64: if errorlevel 1 exit /b 1
vcregress.bat:66: if errorlevel 1 exit /b 1
vcregress.bat:86:exit /b %E%
vcregress.bat:97:if %CONTRIBERROR%==1 exit /b 1
vcregress.bat:113:exit /b %E%

Would making a change like this in those 12 places be so ugly?
