These things (retrieving locations and versions of OS-specific
directories/settings and toolchains) are imho the most brittle of the whole
end-to-end building. Mistakes here (e.g. wrong versions, wrong architectures)
might lead to a number of almost inpredictable failures.
I 100% agree the fallback is a great idea, but I am a bit worried that this
change is in gradle and that we don't have tests for this.
