Alas, the OP has an unrealistic deadline to produce an LOC count, and 
the chances that he'll be able to employ a decent code-counting tool are 
slim.  On the bright side, the compiler knows how many LOC are present. 
 On the sad side, the compiler doesn't emit that information in a 
machine readable way.  My Christmas wish is to have the compiler emit 
the entire cross reference listing in machine readable form :-)
