What? 

"You must make Source Code of all Your Deployed Modifications publicly
available under the terms of this License, including the license grants
set forth in Section 3 below, for as long as you Deploy the Covered Code
or twelve (12) months from the date of initial Deployment, whichever is
longer."

That is, if you modify openwatcom and distribute that modified version
(even internally), you must provide the source code to the modified
version to the public. Some people may find that objectionable, but it
doesn't appear to mean what you claim.
