Rebuilding the entire toolchain of your language sounds like a colossal waste of time when you just wanted to avoid a few hours per year of developer downtime.

No need to rebuild everything. Simply having the "DLLs" or equivalent checked in or in a maven/NuGet folder backed up would do the trick.

Your not just saving developer downtime. Remember that non incident a few months ago? Could be a security issue too.
