At least to this point I can safely say that I need the source because I needed to explicitly give a #version to the vertex shader at least one time in my application. Apparently if the pixel shader uses #version 130 then so must the vertex shader. The only way to do this was to prepend the #version to the vertex source.
Anyway, how would it work to return an ALLEGRO_SHADER*? If both get_default() functions returned an ALLEGRO_SHADER* how would you combine them into a single shader?
