You can also look at the `script` command. When executed, a new shell will
begin and all output to terminal is stored in a file which can be checked
after the fact.
So, your buildworld will look something like this:
# script /tmp/buildworld-output
Script started, output file is /tmp/buildworld-output
# make buildworld
.. lots of text ..
# exit
Script done, output file is /tmp/buildworld-output
#
If you see no fatal errors which terminated the buildworld process, it's
safe to say that it completed successfully.
