Unable to find texture

I've noticed a straightforward error when compiling with map2dif in QuArK lately:
Unable to find texture "texturename" (.png or .jpg)
This makes good sense for a full compile, but it is stopping the compile process when building ".dif only" also. (not exporting textures)
I've always assigned non-existent texture names when building, then returned to texture it up before I do a full compile.
Not a big deal to get textures finished beforehand, but I don't understand why this needs to halt the compile process all of a sudden, vs. being able to ignore the message and continue (or have no message at all when building .dif only, as I remember in the old map2dif I was using).
I'm also not a programmer, so if there is a good reason for this I'm quite oblivious, so please forgive me. ;)
