My concern isn't so much in that these binaries come with the source --
it sounds suboptimal, but it's not quite as bad as shipping binary blobs
we haven't built ourselves...

That's the main issue I have with it and with removing the line from
rules which deletes .syso files (note that we probably shouldn't ship
any binaries we have not built ourselves, that includes other ELF
binaries packed in the source tarball). It's possibly OK to run these
binaries late in the build process when running tests because we are not
exposing our users to untrusted binaries directly (as long as they don't
go silently change the binaries we built and are about to ship), but
shipping these files to users without having built them ourselves sounds
like a security accident waiting to happen.
