[Warren Toomey]

In article by Michael Sokolov:
>I have heard jokes that CSRG got Microsoft to rewrite 90% of the code for them.
>Seriously, though, the bloat starts in Reno and really gets out of hand in 4.4.
>The sources are bloated just as much as the binaries, so I wouldn't blame it
>just on the compiler or the libraries.
