Have you even looked at the "source code"? Does anyone here really think a 
hexadecimal array of opcodes is the "preferred form for modification"? IMHO, it 
isn't any more useful than the straight binary (in fact, running a simple bin 
to hex converter on the binary will trivially give you that "source code" 
back).

Is it really safe to distribute packages where upstream doesn't even comply 
with their own license?
