While working on build-o-matic,  i've noticed a few unique errors that
are from various shell scripts that the build system utilizes.
This doesn't appear to be local to a particular OS.
Though, it seems to occur more frequently with more than one jam job (
jam -jX, where X > 2)
Thing is, even if one of these errors occur, jam seems to return 0  (no error)
Should jam be treating these as an actual error?

If wanted, i could find log files that do contain these errors.

Partial Strings:
'}: Bad substitution',
'Error: Failed to open connection to FS shell: No such file or directory',
'Error: Failed to open source path',
'Error: Command failed: Bad file descriptor',
'Error: Command failed: Attribute not found',
'Error: Invalid path',
"Error: Couldn't access",
"Error: Failed to open target"
