Another possibility is collecting the scripts which failed into a
single error message in either the script output or as verbose
(verbosity == 0?) output. Or, maybe only print the warning for the
first script which fails in this way.

In your solution, it'd probably be nice to keep the error output to
something less than 65 characters so it always fits on one line.
