I've been using this rc function for a while:

fn mk {
	if (test -f Errors) {
		builtin mk $* |[2] tee Errors
		test -s Errors && { { echo b Errors ; echo e } | samsend }
	} else {
		builtin mk $*
	}
}

samsend is a stripped-down version of B which sends stdin to the pipe,
rsh'ing to a remote machine if necessary to avoid NFS problems. I also
have scripts to do B, D and cd operations from rc using samsend.

-Mark.
