You are confusing C scripts (run by things like CInt and tcc) and C files.

I have 19968 C files under my home directory (which frightens me
somewhat). All of them form the whole or parts of programs. A fair
fraction of them contain the entry points for the programs (i.e., the
main funcion). None of them start with #!.
