I'm not sure exactly what you're saying, but there is no requirement
that you give the source to anyone who asks for it; as you say, the
requirement is that _if_ you distribute the binary, _then_ you must _also_
provide the source. If you don't want to distribute your modifications at
all, there's no problem with that. (Of course, if you've made useful
changes I don't see a reason _not_ to release them, but that's up to you.)
