You will need to make a release for it from the sources, and ship the release files as a separate binary (like .rpm, or .deb). While you can provide support in your sources to build different binaries, there is no use to store binaries when it differs between platforms and architectures. Today it is only these binary files, but, tomorrow it can be for other platforms and architectures. If a person is interested in only, say ARM architecture, why would they want to get the binaries for all the platforms from the sources? If one wants to build for a specific architecture, they can get the source and build it themselves, or they can use the separate binary that you release. Keep the sources clean, and not taint with binaries.
