Source code is absent, in violation of the GPL (assuming this thing runs

It is commonly thought that GPL requires you to publish the source code.
This is not so. I have been involved in enough GPL violation cases to know
that this is not so.

All you are required to do is offer to provide the source code to anyone
that has bought the product (then provide it if they do). You may even
charge a nominal amount to do so.

Most people these days just publish the code as this is an easy way to
comply.
