I don't think the point was ever to be accurate, but to give a rough
idea. If OpenOffice.org is 1047 bash units, and bash takes 1.0 minutes
on your machine, then you know *about* how long OpenOffice.org will take
to compile. I don't think anyone is concerned with exact numbers so
much as ballpark figures to give them a reasonable estimate of needed
time.
