Right, but that was sort of my point, you are counting lines which aren't part
of the cluster install since src/test has lot's of C code which is just tests.

$ find src/test/ -name '*.[chyl]' | xargs cat|wc -l
23587

And the cluster install does contain C++ which isn't counted for.

$ find . -name '*.cpp' | xargs cat|wc -l
1485

Counting just lines in a cluster install is a valid use case but the script
might need some adaptations to match the current tree.
