True. 

I'm not sure which version you're building it with, but the site says that the oldest supported version is 1.4, which was released in 2007. Perhaps it makes more sense to build the tarball with a newer version that won't have this issue (I'm not sure how new that needs to be, but presumably that's either 1.6.x, released in 2009, or 1.7.x, released in 11/2011), and give older users the out of still doing a full-checkout?
