[Fsf-friends] Source GPL, Binary Demo

Is it right as per provision of  GPL, to release source code under GPL
and binary as  nonGPL. This is the case of `Qcad',  a 2-D CAD package.
Its version 1.xx was GPL for Linux and nonGPL for MS-window.

With 2.xx version, they say, source is under GPL and on their web-site
demo versions are there  for Linux  as well as for  MS-windows, which
terminate after every 10 minutes.

Then what sort of GPL is it for source code?
