I see what you want here andrew, but I'm not sure what we are going to do about
it. To an extent the error handling of ant is a bit, well, messy; we have
limited policy hard coded into the tasks themselves.

Take a look at the ant-contrib project on sf.net, in particular their try/catch
task. Then look at <macrodef> and see what it would take to actually implement
what you want in a macro. something like (

<macrodef name="mysql">
 <attribute name="errors"/>
 <attribute name="file" />
 <sequential>
<trycatch property="errormessage" >
  <try>
   <sql >
    <transaction file="@{file}" />
   </sql>
  </try>
  <catch>
   <echo level="verbose" >${errormessage}</echo>
   <property name="@{errors}" value="${errormessage}"/>
  </catch>
</trycatch>
</sequential>
</macrodef>

If you fill the <sql> bit in with your DB connection, you get a task you can use
like
 <mysql errorproperty="errs" file="drop-db.sql" />
 <mysql errorproperty="errs" file="create-db.sql" />
 <mysql errorproperty="errs" file="create-user.sql" />
 <mysql errorproperty="errs" file="populate-db.sql" />
