That's a good question - should I ship binaries? I've picked up the idea
that if you want a Linux program of a version that isn't included in your
distro packages, you build from source, but it seems here that including a
binary in the tarball would do no harm, and perhaps save users some
trouble? It seems to make sense but be something not usually done, so I
figure I'd better check.
