To make these errors appear in TWiki debug.txt file, one need just to append one line to lib/TWiki/Plugins.pm, after eval "use $p;"; around line 140:

     eval "use $p;";
      &TWiki::Func::writeDebug( "ERROR in Plugin $plugin: $@" ) if ( $@ ); 

I suggest this makes it in the official distrib. It should incur no overhead. Attached is the patch to Dec 2001 version.

What it perhaps be better to use writeWarning? I think we only use the Func routines from within Plugins.

Fine with me.
