I just tried this command in the top-level Emacs directory:
grep -hR -A1 "^(def" lisp --include="*.el" | grep -v "^--" | grep "^ \""
and got 30594 lines of output. And this is only the doc strings;
there are built-ins defined in C, prompts, literal `(message FOO)'
messages, calls to `signal' and `error', etc.
So yes, Emacs is _definitely_ larger than GCC. Much larger, almost by
an order of magnitude.
