You shouldn't be choosing at all. You should provide everything that is likely to be useful. For example, if you automatically converted a Pascal program to C, then made small changes to the C, then you should provide both the Pascal and the C as both are likely to be useful to at least some people who want to make changes. On the other hand, if the C has been worked on a lot and nobody has used the Pascal for a few years, then there is probably no need to continue distributing the Pascal. In any case, you have to draw the line somewhere or old versions of the code will pile up like invariant sections in an FDL document ... However, I'm fairly happy with how the GPL defines source.
