Yes, but I only have javac 1.6.0 on my system, which works even with
just the `-version' option:

 $ javac -version; echo '$?' = $?
 javac 1.6.0_20
 $? = 0

Adding a dummy non-existent file to the command line of the javac
invocation unfortunately won't fix your problem:

 $ javac -version dummy.java; echo '$?' = $?
 javac 1.6.0_20
 javac: file not found: dummy.java
 Usage: javac <options> <source files>
 use -help for a list of possible options
 $? = 1

 $ javac -version /dev/null; echo '$?' = $?
 javac 1.6.0_20
 javac: invalid flag: /dev/null
 Usage: javac <options> <source files>
 use -help for a list of possible options
 $? = 1

Maybe adding also the `-help' option to the java invocation works?  E.g.,

 $ javac -version -help

Does this fix your problem?

Sorry for the inconvenience,
  Stefano
