    I have the same experience w.r.t. kernel size on MIPS, using 2.95.4 from Debian
    woody on the target, and 3.2.2 for cross-compiling.

    Perhaps the code increase is for CISC only?

    In personal conversations with technical people, I call myself a hacker. But
    when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
