I must say that I don't understand You both.
If You don't want to support the code then don't.
Are You too afraid to say that to the whiners ? ;-)
I have always seen source hiding in circumstances like this as silly and sneaky.
I never do this.

That may come across as arrogant on my part. But I've been burned too
many times by "smart" programmer who "borrow" code from me, without
asking, then enter problem reports against it when the code doesn't
do what they wanted it to.
I've had a similar problem with listings. I tend to print them in the
densest font available because I don't like bulky listing. People have
borrowed my personal listings and then complained that they are too
hard to read. I consider that to be more than a bit arrogant, just as
I consider thus expecting you to support the code they borrowed to be
arrogant.
