We use Linksys/Sipura phones, and do mass provisioning via tftp and http. There is no need for a compiler for the SPA-841, 941, 942, 3000, or 2000 phones at least; I don't have direct experience with others. We feed a raw XML configuration file to the phone via a cgi-bin script which receives the MAC address as a form parameter, and all is well with the world.
I posted our experiences on voip-info.org, here: http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/sipura+mass+deployment We've had our deployment system in place almost totally unchanged for the last 18 months or so with no real problems. The only thing I find slightly less than optimal is that for major configuration changes, the phones seem to need a factory reset to pick up the changes in a timely manner.
