That seems odd. The only thing that changed in 3116 was creole, which should not affect the build at all.
This makes me suspect it was Shawn's changes in 3117 that broke the Linux build.
Sort of. He exposed a bug in the translator. Basically, the code for initializing a constant that couldn't be represented easily as a string wasn't emitting a semicolon. Apparently, no one had ever done this before. I think it has partly to do with the new ways of specifying strings in 4.0. Literals were properly initialized.
This is fixed in svn:3123.
