It depends. If you ONLY modify the front-end (front-end files are
identified as being licensed under GPL [1]), then you can distribute the
modified front-end.
However, if you modify the back end, you cannot redistribute those
files. You also cannot distribute a compiled version.
To be safe, it's probably best to just distribute any changes you make
as a patch.
