Those source archives are used to build a toolchain capable of compiling firmware for the Lego Mindstorms NXT. Its critical both for support reasons and for practical size issues that I use the exact same method to compile the device firmware as upstream. Upstream deliberately uses specific versions of the source archives mentioned as this produces better results for there specific project. For those reasons I think its better in this case to build the source package to include the relevant source archives.
