Oh yes, sorry for the bad report.

While the original regexp catches these errors:

D:\cygwin\root\my-project\src\main\java\my\project\controllers\MainController.java:[27,12] error: cannot find symbol
[ERROR]   symbol:   class SomeService
  location: class MainController

it does not catch these, which Maven emits sometimes:

[ERROR] D:\cygwin\root\my-project\src\main\java\my\project\controllers\MainController.java:[21,1] error: cannot find symbol
[ERROR]   symbol: class Controller

My version catches both.

Also, the original regexp seems to be more complicated than it really
should be.

Tested on Maven 2.2.1 and 3.0.4.
