Just wondering -- does this run faster if you build it with
CFLAGS=-O3
LDFLAGS=-static

p.s. I wrote the following before I remember that getc() was stdio... ;)

#include <stdio.h>

main()
{
char c;
int i, chcount, count = 0;


while( EOF != ( chcount = scanf("%c",&c) ) )
  {
  if(chcount < 1) { break; }
  if(c == '\n') { count++; }
  }

printf("%d\n",count);
}
