I don't think is any need to include a source tarball, GPL requirement is satisfied just by a notice "source code available at http://inkscape.org"
It is in our interests to include the source code on the CD. Doing so encourages people to look at & play with the source. This may in turn encourage further interest in Free Software, where you can actually play with & even get involved in the improvement of the software.
That would be fair enough, if this was a magazine for software developers and professionals, but it's not. People will just get confused if they see a load of source code.
