Yeah that should be totally fine.  Pidgin is licensed under the GPL,

I don't believe that they have to modify the code to come under that obligation. Section 3 applies to executables distributed under both section 1 and section 2.

They would be strongly advised to include the source code on the CD, as that fulfills their obligation with no further hassle.
