I think, it would be ok, if they have an open source license, and they
have.  You can of course redistribute them. I'm not sure, what's with the
sources.  If you change them, you will have to distribute your changes, but
if you didn't change them, IMO it would be ok to just give the binaries. If
someone asks you for the sources, you must make them available to them, but
probably a link to the original sources would be enough. But I'm no lawyer.
In fact, I do distribute binary-only Debian packages of PD on my website,
because I didn't have enough space for the sources as well. So I only
linked to Miller's page. So far nobody has complained, and nobody did want
the sources from me. I could and would give them, of course.

Ah, now I remember, I did change s_linux.c to use "alsa/asoundlib.h". Now I
will have to publish the sources, d*mn! 
;)
