I guess hp might be referring to (some form of)
http://cvs.gnome.org/bonsai/cvsblame.cgi?file=gnome-panel%2Fapplets%2Fwncklet/window-menu.c&rev=&root=/cvs/gnome
(this one is slightly longer: 663 lines ;)

Havoc's libwnck's cvs module name is (surprise! ;) libwnck. IIRC, it's
not documented, although the code is mostly readable.

    De la observación de la irreductibilidad de las creencias últimas 
    he sacado la mayor lección de mi vida. Aprendí a respetar las ideas 
    ajenas, a detenerme ante el secreto de las conciencias, a entender 
    antes de discutir, a discutir antes de condenar. Y como estoy en 
    vena de confesiones, hago una más, quizás superflua: detesto con 
    toda mi alma a los fanáticos.
