It's slightly more important than 'best try'. Not only does not
providing sources prove to be a real PITA for people trying to use
snapshots, but there's also a license-compliance issue.
So, how many GPL'd programs are in snapshots we build?
a month after the snapshot has been built, and the -current sources
have changed a bit, how do people get the sources used to build those
programs?
