Replying to [comment:5 Otto42]:
> There is no requirement for WordPress to release the source code for a
single binary file which they did not write and which is not GPL licensed
to begin with.
GPL source requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. That's in
§2.
(Remark to quote: The file in question is part of the wordpress software
package.)
