Size of executable???

[haha@here.org]

:>I'm working with RedHat 6.0, and I've dowloaded, configured, built, and
:>installed gcc-2.95.1. The relevant gcc and g++ commands are put in
:>/usr/local/bin. I've made symbolic links to the 2.95.1 gcc and g++ in
:>/usr/bin. These are GCC and G++. When I compile a simple c++ program
:>with my old g++ ( the version that came with RH6.0 -- 2.95 ) it yields
:>an executable of about 20k, but when I compile the same program with G++
:>( version 2.95.1 ) it yields an executable of about 330k. Same flags,
:>and so on. This happens with every program. 2.95 yields a small program,
:>and 2.95.1 yields a large program. This also happens when I try:
:>/usr/local/bin/g++ -g -Wall hello.cpp -o hello. What is happening here?
Try:
$strip hello
Haha!
