Generally speaking, we try to tie the source tree to a version of the compiler. 
Over time, little idioms work in that are intended to avoid compiler 
bugs/issues. E.g., I know for the old msp430 there were a couple of segments of 
code that had to be rewritten because the compiler was generating incorrect 
output (e.g., a number wasn't being added). So going forward, there's 
absolutely no promise that any code will continue to work with the older 
compiler.
