The QPL says: You may make modifications to the Software and distribute your modifications, in a form that is separate from the Software, such as patches. This means that you cannot distribute modified compiler source code; you can only distribute patches. Someone who wants to use your modified compiler is therefore forced to install the standard compiler, then apply your patch.
