[AFAIK]
Which files to be compiled depends upon the search path for the compiler...
If the .pas files are not in the compiler search path but the matching .dcu
IS in the search path then the dcu will be used without reporting the number of
lines of source code that the dcu represents.
Likewise if you add the Delphi VCL source files to the search path you will get
considerably more than 50,000 lines... And you can then step through the VCL
code when there's a problem - The problem is seldom really in their code but it
can illuminate exactly what the problem is with yours.
