Hmm, I'd like to have it appear like a build so the reported errors are 
counted separately etc.
Basically more or less like the KWStyle build for cmake (the one just at the 
top):
http://www.cdash.org/CDash/index.php?project=CMake

IOW how can I tweak the build step so that it calls krazy instead of actually 
building the project.
