Only if:

a) you have iron discipline about keeping your machines of every
build-model pair absolutely identical so you always can reproduce the
problem on the supported machine.

b) you don't work for an organisation that has a lot of headspace
invested in the traditional model of software licensing and won't
hence vomit up its skull at the idea.
