I thought that silent rules do not hide errors. If they do then
of course they should not be enabled.

I see now in the docs:
"Note that silent rules are disabled by default; the user must enable 
them explicitly at either configure run time or at make run time. We 
think that this is a good policy, since it provides the casual user with 
enough information to prepare a good bug report in case anything breaks. "

So yes, this patch is probably wrong. Sorry.
