It's possible (but not easy) to run gnucash out of the build
tree.  If you look in src/bin/overrides you'll see "gnucash-build-env"
Using that you can run:

  gnucash-build-env src/bin/gnucash-bin

This will run gnucash from the build tree, however.....

1) It will still read your 2.0.1 data file (unless you run it with --nofile)
2) You wont get the updated gconf schemas installed properly
3) There's no real reason for this level of cautiousness in an update
   from 2.0.1 to 2.0.4
