I can't really comment on that. I would have to be fully knowledgable 
about the Makefile. There are a couple of current threads on 4.x where 
people are trying to turn it off in some of the builds and are failing.

My personal approach is that if I turn something off and the buld 
fails, it must either be required or I need a lot more knowledge about 
the process than I have. I usually face the choice by shrugging my 
shoulders and assuming it must be required. The time required to learn 
about the process is a lot more involved than turning the option off :).
