I just built and ran the installer from sources on Win7. FB4.7 accepted the results as a new SDK. I created a new Flex project and it showed up in IE8 and FF15. I didn't see any warnings or errors. So, I would say we don't take the time to test all of the permutations of configs. Adobe is not open next week so I will be working from home and testing the installer is slow because of the internet speeds I get at home, so the less downloading I need to do, the better.
