No, you just have to offer the source.
OTOH, if the bdf2c-translator is reasonably small, put it into the utility
directory, define a user-stuff-directory, and write a "make fonts" section
which will insert $CONFIG_USER_STUFF/fonts/* into the kconfig menu.
(Or pre-define $CONFIG_USER_STUFF to a fixed directory in the kernel tree.)
