I know I've spent a lot of nights and weekends over the last three
years helping to make that happens, and I've done only a very very 
small piece of the puzzle.   I can't hear too many pats on the back,
and I imagine (especially at this point in the release cycle) that
affirmation from as many users as we can get is welcomed.

Do you know if the builds used identical flags to egcs?

Does size, 'dump -h' or 'objdump --headers' give you any good clues
about where that 60 K came from?
