Not going to happen. I'm a fan myself of GPL software and have released several of them licensed under the General Public License. RenGuard is not one of them, for obvious reasons.

having the source code available means everyone can modify the software as they wish, and release their own versions, defeating the entire purpose of this software. There may be only one valid version at the same time, and we're the ones that are releasing it.

if you do not trust this software, use tools like regedit/regmon to see what it is actually doing on your system.. or just don't use it.
