Well, unless there are fatal errors in a.php, use the output buffering
functions (ob_start() in a.php, ob_end_clean() in b.php).

When there are fatal errors in a.php it's somewhat trickier. You might want
to use set_error_handler() for this one, but be very sure what you're
doing. It will still not be able to catch every error though...
