It's kind of an informal policy here at the ASF that "source release"
means "all source needed to build on all supported platforms, except
third-party dependencies". :)

Which reminds me that we should consider stopping releasing a separate
Windows zip file, with different contents and different line endings
ourselves. If it's only an issue of unzip being more common on windows
than tar+gunzip, then we can do the same as with tar.gz and tar.bz2 --
just package the same tree in a different archive format.
