It looks like anything less than 6.0.x is a total CF.
5.5.x/trunk should be fine. It certainly works for me. The docs on the web are out of date because we haven't done a 5.5.x release since the svn move. Earlier versions should build from a checkout of trunk but I don't think I tested anything earlier than 4.1.x. Any combined checkout and build script is going to be broken since the svn move. Gump was complaining about a 3.something build a while ago and I think that was fixed so it should be possible to build at least one 3.x version via one route. Archive was voted commit then review so if moving things around / changing build scripts helps go for it.
