It should be able to be tried w/o causing an issue. Maybe we need to go back and visit the original problem and make sure it was diagnosed right.

Could someone explain to me why it is necessary to go through
all the complication to get the SVN number for building a source.
Why can't a simple text file that is updated each time
an addition to the source is committed to the repository
While the text file may seem easier to you, it would often be out of date, and therefore meaningless. I assure you, the svn way of doing it is definitely simpler for the developers. We just need to figure out what is different about your configuration.
I'd recommend not holding your breath for this (implementing the simple text file solution, that is), as it won't work unless it is automatic.
