System: NetBSD robin 1.1_ALPHA NetBSD 1.1_ALPHA (ROBIN) #0: Mon Nov 6 16:27:59 MET 1995 leo@robin:/usr/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/ROBIN i386


>Description:
	The textsize of the /usr/libexec/cc1* files is about 50kb *smaller* when
	linked with -static. This is probably caused by the large symbol table
	included in the text segment of the executables.
>How-To-Repeat:
	Just relink cc1 and do a size on it.
>Fix:
	Link with -static, or even better modify ld...
