Browsers break backwards compatibility occasionally. IE9 changed the way you do createElement to the more standards compliant way and that broke GWT (and many other javascript frameworks) that detected that it was IE and used the old IE way. A new version of GWT was released shortly afterwards that fixed the problem, recompiling made it go away.
Thankfully, these sorts of issues are fairly uncommon and there are usually ways you can trigger compatibility mode via meta tags or headers to avoid the recompile.
