Yes, but there is no way to encode such an exception in the Makefile  
without requiring a bunch of svn-related information:
a) the svn revision from which the compiler was built has to be added  
into the compiler binary (that is currently possible, but it's optional)
b) the Makefile has to check the svn revision of the current checkout  
and compare it against the revision encoded in the compiler binary

And then we will start getting mails from people having trouble in  
case they downloaded a source archive instead of doing an svn checkout.
