Description

During testing upstream, it was found that `py_compile`, and thus compileall, silently skips writing `.pyc` files it can't write (because of path size limits; probably also because of permissions etc.).

For Fedora, it would make sense to fail with an exception (or error exit code). It should probably be an option – not everyone will want it.
