conda the installer only looks in the Anaconda repos (at the moment, and by default - you can add your own conda-format repos if you have any). So no, this *is* a problem with conda, not just Anaconda. And no, it doesn't catch the incompatibility, which says something about the robustness of their compatibility checking solution, I guess...
