Description

I believe a plexus component that captures the compilation output does not detect the newer Java 7 output correctly. Was raised as a maven-compiler-plugin (see this ticket for details on how the Java 7 compiler output changed). I've examined the maven plugin code and it seems that the errors are captured by plexus under the hood.

I think the code that might need enhancing is in org.codehaus.plexus.compiler.javac.JavacCompiler - possibly in parseModernStream and/or parseModernError methods
