Now what happens if Fred creates a tin1.8.2 and John creates a tin1.8.2

That's really not a big problem and anyone who does development on a multiuser machine will be doing it all the time. In fact even a single developer will likely have different versions compiled for testing at the same time. The problem arises when someone has to decide which, if any, should become the 'standard' version, at which point it becomes an issue of authority, not a technical problem.

 If we can't even get all the
repostories to use a simple repotag, we'd never get them to compile with
non-standard paths!

If everyone is going to fight over the same space it again becomes a matter of authority - or a free-for-all.
