A Scala rant
Yeah, I think a cross compiler would be the only way such a thing could be possible. It would be interesting to see how many collections are actually changed though. I have written similar things using soot. The biggest question is whether there would be enough people who would want such a thing. I can't imagine the time savings vs time spent would pay off for me personally.

Scala isn't fun anymore
And then there's sbt-missinglink, which can check that all the libraries that you're using in your application are compatible with each other (that one doesn't link to a missing class or method -- do you see? :) ). It prevents NoClassDefFoundError/NoSuchMethodError from happening at runtime.

sbt-missinglink 0.3.2 has been released: Multi-Release JARs and concurrency
sbt-missinglink can analyze all your projects concurrently. It can take a lot of memory, so you may want to limit the degree of concurrency via missinglinkConflictsTag

Preventing version conflicts with versionScheme (improving the Scala library ecosystem)
In our company, we've had good experience with sbt-missinglink. It's an sbt plugin made by Scala Center that wraps the MissingLink tool. It solves the problem the linked article describes, but does so in a more fundamental way. Instead of looking at versions of packages, it goes through all the class files and analyses possible "binary" conflicts.
What are some alternatives?
