I would think we comply with that. If we were so legally tasked, we could come up with a copy of sources. Presuming the time limit is "something reasonable", which it should be. Right? the process would be something like: 1) a request is officially made (letter, email) 2) You respond to the request, either providing a link to the sources or the sources themselves, or state that it will takes <estimated time> to run down and you will come back 3) in the latter case, find a couple and complete the request Maybe somebody should archive the freebsd distfile cache periodically just-in-case because 3 years is a long time but in practical terms the since the source was never hosted at FreeBSD and presumably widely available chances are nobody would actually exercise this right.
