The IDE uses them to determine if a rebuild (all) is needed. If it is missing on next compile, the IDE assumes a rebuild is needed. This means you don't need to store them in a source only repository (e.g. svn, git). If you distribute binary files (e.g. .ppu files) you should provide them. There is a platform independent version of the .compiled files. See the Makefile.compiled files.
