I don't think that's quite right. There are two completely separate
modes for buildman:

building (no -s)
not building (-s)

I added the -v feature to let you see build results while building. So
-v only applies to the 'building' mode, and implies -e.

For the 'not building' mode, you get a basic summary for free, and can
tell buildman all sorts of things you want to see - like errors (-e)
sizes (-S) function bloat (-B) and list of broken boards (-l)
