No, it's not enough.  The license is clear.  If you provide a binary
Cygwin you'll have to provide the sources for that exact version on
your distribution medium, too.  If somebody packages something up
with a binary Cygwin 1.1.8, where should the user get the sources
for that version?  Not on our web or ftp pages, at least.  That's the
reason the sources have to be packed up, too.
