I looked at the code of "compilezpy.py" (maybe, you do the same).
It might help when you comment out the line

   "sys.stdout = Shutup()"

If not, you want to catch the case when "compileall.compile"
returns "False" for the first time and output the failing directory.
In that directory, you can then look for missing "*.pyc" files.
