Ummmm, not quite:

[todd@fiji ~]$ tar -zxvf hpt3xx-opensource-v13.tgz -C tmp
rules.mak
Makefile
hpt.c
hptkern.h
hptglb.h
hpt.h
hpt37x2lib.o  <----------- # Proprietary binary module
readme.txt

Maybe on the commercial CD's, but I hardly see management consenting to
put that in the Mandrake kernel due to its non open source license.
Just my two cents.
