No. Most distros compile libical so that errors are not fatal (Ubuntu
Jaunty, Fedora). In upstream, first the configure.in and later
CMakeLists.txt were changed so that non-fatal is the default.

The exception from that is Debian testing. It used the default
CMakeLists.txt in 0.43, which still makes errors fatal. I've filed a
bug: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=537346
