ok (after I replied, it did occur to me that I was answering the wrong
question ;-)
But for small programs (statically linked), the libraries will tend to
dominate - your ~80k looks like it's linked against a shared library.
(I usually statically link - so minicom is bigger).

It'd be nice (but hard to achieve) to make the setup-program use the
code from Lynx (such as LYReadCfg.c) to guarantee that.
