No, it was a majority decision... ...the majority decision saiz that 99% of win32 users never owned or installed a compiler. The other majority decision says that Unix packages never contain the source tree.
Of course, they do include /lib, /include, /libexec etc, so you should be set for building -against- apache if you so desire. And I have taken to packaging a win32 'zip' package of the sources, including (for win32) the 'exported' .mak files from .dsp vc projects. (In /dist/httpd/) So everyone should be quite happy.
