Lets say just the kernel, my Minix 1.1 kernel (kernel/mm/fs) source is
about 600K.  It might be interesting to know how that compares to the
original Unix.  In other words, does making a simple readable kernel
reduce the size of the source code or increase it?  Granted their
probably aren't as many comments...
