I was actually thinking about distributing unpatched binaries for all

No, it means that you cannot distribute binary (compiled) RPMs.   So
while .src.rpm files are OK, i386.rpm or .x86_64.rpm is not allowed.

The only way I could think of around this would be to distribute
tarballs of the source as .i386.rpm and have the postinstall script
actually compile and install it.
