Not an answer to that question, but I looked at three perl modules using
XS (libint-perl and two randomly chosen JSON::XS and Text::CSV_XS) and
they do not ship the .c files corresponding to the .xs file unless I
missed something.

This is not exactly our situation as we do not have stand alone modules,
but it would be an indication that it is expected for .c files not to be
in the source tarball.
