If freeciv would have 75 modules we would have 213762/75=2850 lines
per module. This isn't _this_ far from the 10,000+ max case.

  (On the statement print "42 monkeys"+"1 snake"): BTW, both perl and Python
  get this wrong. Perl gives 43 and Python gives "42 monkeys1 snake", when 
  the answer is clearly "41 monkeys and 1 fat snake".
