That's because the version test was not removed, just suppressed in
the most frequent situations during the build.  But when Org files
need to be actually loaded (e.g., to generate a manual out of some
foo.org source), the test will kick in and will abort the command.

The only way to avoid that is to redesign and reimplement the solution
for version mismatch in Org macros.
