I was also surprised by a disturbing message from an old
SWI-Prolog-5.6.? installation that caused no problem for older Isabelle
versions.
(The message and the SWI-Prolog installation is lost now. I'm under linux.)
What do I loose without SWI-Prolog?

Probably nothing. I.e. you can just deactivate
Isabelle2011/src/HOL/Tools/Predicate_Compile/etc/settings by renaming the
file or commenting out the "choosefrom" invocations that pick up external
tools accidentally.
I've introduced "choosefrom" myself many years ago, but it has come out of
fashion more recently, when explicit "components" were introduced. So it
looks like it would be better to phase out this implicit collecting of
settings altogether in the next release.

values of inductive predicates with SWI-Prolog.
Some examples can be found in
src/HOL/Predicate_Compile_Examples/Code_Prolog_Examples.thy
As it is a experimental feature, it might be superseded by future
developments soon.
