If the source wasn't in good enough shape then I don't think its unreasonable to believe that the compiled binary robustness might be tenuous, unless you think they just haven't put enough inline comments. Maybe the reviews that indicate Xoom is very 'beta like' and reports of crashes might stack against the 'binary was good enough' thought.
I don't see why Google felt the need to rush Honeycomb at all. So what if they waited another year. Better to release a full and complete Tablet OS than to rush it, imho.
