Surely, the other way around is a problem, Actually the FSF always anticipated that case because its the same as the GPL app on non-free OS case and the GPL there says "However, as a special exception, the source code distributed need not include anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies the executable." > interface, which gives it shape.

Well if you are going to provide the source then its not really a binary interface, its a jump table.
