No, GIMP cannot be recursive by any definition... GNU is recursive because the 'G' stands for "GNU". For GIMP to be recursive the 'G' would have to stand for "GIMP" which it does not... therefore it is not recursive.
The fact that the 'G' stands for something that is, itself, a recursive acronym is irrelevant. There is nothing to stop recursive acronyms including recursive acronyms (to however many levels required, in fact) but they still have to fulfil the criteria themselves, they can't "inherit" through inclusion. "GIMP Image Manipulation Program" would be recursive, "GNU Image Manipulation Program" clearly isn't...
