I can imagine it being useful to want to use default compilation options that
abort immediately on the first include failure, yet continue compilation on
other types of errors. (for example, seeing multiple errors when you are
search/replace on variable names is useful.) Continuing compilation when an
include failure occurs is almost never a good idea and rarely useful due to the
spectacular cascade of errors that are commonly produced.
