Actually, even then you would only have to make the source available  
to the people that get the compiled version. You would not be able to  
forbid those people to redistribute the sources further though,  
possibly even via public websites.

That said, as Tomas explained: as long as you simply call the  
compiler from within your IDE and don't compile it in, your IDE is a  
completely separate work and you can distribute/sell it under any  
license and conditions you want.
