I'm not saying it doesn't matter.

what I'm saying is that it doesn't change the program's qualification as free software.

it still can't be built and run in freedom, and that is a key consideration that any user should pay attention to.

but that source code is free software also carries important implications that shouldn't be dismissed.

the miscommunication arises, AFAICT, from an apparent assumption that there's a full overlap between qualifying as free software and being usable in freedom

the distinction is IMHO important: consider an undisputably free program written in C, a language for which a number of free toolchains exist

now, say you get a binary (along with sources) compiled using a nonfree compiler. the risk you pointed out affects this binary just as much, and therefore it's best to avoid using that binary. I didn't dispute that it should be avoided.

my point is that, because the program (source code) is free software, you can (more or less easily) choose another compiler to build it and avoid that risk. so the fact that it is free software matters as well

of course, when a free compiler doesn't exist and it has to be made, it goes all the way towards the \"not easily\". one may then have to write a compiler, or translate the program to a different language, and then finally be able to run the program in freedom. it's not easy, but there aren't any roadblocks either.

my point is that, because the program (source code) is free software, you can (more or less easily) choose another compiler to build it and avoid that risk. so the fact that it is free software matters as well

of course, when a free compiler doesn't exist and it has to be made, it goes all the way towards the \"not easily\". one may then have to write a compiler, or translate the program to a different language, and then finally be able to run the program in freedom. it's not easy, but there aren't any roadblocks either.
