In Sun's JDK javac, you can do this (from the tools documentation web
site):

    Set the property javac.pipe.output to true to send output messages
    to System.out.

The way you do this is:

    javac -J-Djavac.pipe.output=true ...

I believe JavaCC prints its errors to System.out, so it shouldn't be a
problem.  Is this true?
