   Hmm, so does this mean that the reason why GNU deserves credit
   in the _name_ and not somewhere else is because GNU's contribution
   is so significant -- they pretty much built most of the rest of the
   system?

The GNU project deserves credit not only because the GNU project wrote
the GNU operating system, but also because they named it.  One does
not go about calling BSD for System V, despite them being very
similar.
