I've no doubt you're right but I've never heard it stated before; why
isn't GPL V2's section 3's definition of source code sufficient?
The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for
making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source
code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to
control compilation and installation of the executable.
Cheers,
Ralph.
