There is quite a lot of GNU code written in C. However, since gnu is a political umbrella project which does not necessarily value code quality, we see a lot of unnecessary complexity arising from the focus on creating working "free" software and not minding the quality much. Anyone who ever touched GNU autotools will confirm that the bloat issue is real. No need to be a diehard C head.
