That's the key value of open-source projects. You don't have to release a binary, just source code and a build guide. It's also one of the reasons why I have such high respect for OS distributions like BSDs and Slackware. They give you a good base that you can build upon if you know what you're doing.
The problem is, many PC users don't really know what they're doing.
