Yes, the IRS (thanks Bush administration) counts that stuff as "compensation". ALPA volunteers have to report that stuff to the IRS and then pay taxes on it, even though no cash was ever received.
As far as DW's paycheck, sorry I don't have a copy of his W-2 on me. I do remember discussing it at length and we thought it ironic that he would make more money flying the line (actual cash) because at the time NWA had not taken concessions. United, though, had already and their highest pay rate brought down the average.
