Is it the code that (original publishing company) compiled from?
No.

Does it give the same binary?
Yes.

So why would you want the one they have copyrights over rather than one that gives the same binary which they do not have copyrights over?

@Hawkwinter @didek @nixCraft Reasonably certain this would be a derivative work by any reasonable interpretation. At least some of the legal casework and guidance around decompilation supports that assertion. You can't get past copyright just by mechanically transforming it. Which is probably a good lesson for AI proponents (including me).
