>objdump -h

This didn't give me quite what I expected, but I think it did lead me to 
the answer.  The major size differences are in $GDB_DEBUG$, 
$GDB_STRINGS$, and $GDB_SYMBOLS$; I noticed that libgcc.a is over 6 
times bigger for the second build (the one that used binutils) - I then 
remembered that during the first build, it printed a bunch of messages 
that -g was only valid when using gas.  So I guess the difference is 
debugging info in libgcc.

Is libgcc normally just a static library?  I specified --enable-shared, 
but it looks like the only shared library it built was libstdc++.
