Did you check the size without the # comments?

I went back to your old config and I could not reproduce it. But I'll try again with a new kernel rpm, and do the following:
# rpm -Uvh <some new kernel> # reboot # to that new kernel $ git clone <latest-linus.git> linus.git $ cd linus.git $ make localyesconfig
and see what happens. Is this a good test for you?
Thanks,
