How is it free software if I am unable to produce a build from the the source code that is made available. This clearly violates freedoms 0 and 1.

From the SFLC Guide:

"The Corresponding Source definition – both in GPLv2 and GPLv3 – has not been typically read to include the compiler itself, but rather things like makefiles, build scripts, and packaging scripts."

These are not provided with the source code, and they claim the distributed binaries are licensed under the GPL. How is this correct if they do not satisfy the 4 freedoms?
