The best comparison I'd suggest is looking at it from a Function Point
perspective.
Check http://www.spr.com/library/0langtbl.htm by Capers Jones.
Excerpt from the list on average number of statements to implement a
function point:
Ada 83:  71
Ada 95:  49
C++:      53

the rest of the math is left as an exercise for the student....    ;-)
