Waiter.getLog doesn't throw Exception when logcat process encounter error

What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Remove READ_LOGS permission from project under test. On my environment the problem would happens even READ_LOGS permission is present in AndroidManifest.

2. setup a test with memthod waitForLogMessage, e.g., mSolo.waitForLogMessage("some log")
3. When the test run waitForLogMessage would return false, although "some log" has dumped to logcat. Error stream from logcat process would report "android Unable to open log device '/dev/log/main': Permission denied". What is the expected output? What do you see instead? Expect it to throw Exception when return value from Process is non-zero. The Exception message would be the error message from error stream. What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? Robotium 4.3.1. Android 4.4.2 on Samsusng S2 with CyanFox.
