No.

640 kB should be enough for anyone?

First of all, you can circumvent this limitation by moving the
functions to code you inherit.  I forget what the absolute maximum
number of functions in an object is, inherited ones included, alas.

Second of all, 4000 isn't necessarily all that much either.  Think
generated LPC code in this case.
