Hmm...good point. OK, I will fess up. I have such a mirror that is
only for the convenience of my co-workers and myself. It is not
distributed outside of our company. Note that I was just trying to save
bandwidth and disk space.
If this is considered a GPL violation (and in hindsight, it probably
is), then I will update my script to download the source too.
