Huge cpp executables -- why?

Hello:

First the good news.  I've successfully compiled and installed glibc-2.2
and the Linux 2.2.2 kernel on an i586 machine using the 1.1.2 pre 1
release.  However, a hello world type C++ program produces a 400K
executable, even with -fno_exeptions -O.

size reports

   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
  47069	  15704	    504	  63277	   f72d	a.out

Is this expected?

Geoff
