Hmm, I assume the core kernel is a _relitivly_ small part of that, they
also have to code the GUI and lib equivents ...

2.1.106 is approching 1.5 Million lines of code (1461305 using the rough
guess wc method ;), anyone got a rough figure for the XFree86 and (g)libc

rough guess wc method:
find . -name '*.[chS]' -print |xargs cat |wc
