Small binaries are charming somehow... and it gives you the possibility to
make something like cripple mint distribution (1 floppy-disk MiNT
distribution). But as I said - this "fat" kernel sources could be coded
with #ifdefs and so you could just leave out the things that you don't
want to have in the kernel. So, if someone want's an fat kernel, he/she is
able to build one..., but if he likes to build an small kernel, he or she
is also able to do it, by setting / unsetting the kernel-configuration
compiler defines.
