Hwa-Jin Bae says

<<This is contrary to my experience, and contents of CD-ROMs that I
have access to.  However, the ones I have are perhaps one of the
earlier copies sold.  I no reason to disbelieve you, and you
sound like you know for sure.  Therefore, I would like to apologize
to all that I have unjustly accused of wrongdoings.  I make
this public apology on the basis that given your experience
and mine, you have a different experience with Tornado than me.
And I am willing to consider that I might have been wrong biased
by circumstances that indicated otherwise.  I am very glad that the
GNU tools are accompanied with source code.>>


Once again, there is no requirement that GNU tools be "accompanied" by
source code. The rule is (see GPL for full text), that either you must
distribute the sources along with the objects, or make them available
on request (and the distribution should give details of how to make
such a request).

You may or may not have to pay a copying charge for such a request. That
is up to the person distributing the program.
