Or maybe make a gambas-source subpackage with only the source files needed to build gambas-gui that are not in the gambas-devel package? > It shouldn't be a big > deal since gambas is a buildrequires of gambas-gui anyway.

As long as the necessary files are guaranteed to be available at build time by doing nothing besides installing the SRPM and all buildrequires, it's no problem. Relying on something else to place sources in $RPM_BUILD_DIR like the rhide SRPM does is not acceptable.
