[MiNT] large binaries with MiNTLib 0.55.2



I noticed a significant increase in the size of binaries linked with
MiNTLib 0.55.2, compared to those linked with 0.53, both compiled with
gcc 2.95.2.

A simple hello, world program gave me these sizes (both _not_ stripped):

-rw-r--r--    1 tomas    tomas      119740 Apr 14 20:52 test
-rw-r--r--    1 tomas    tomas       31121 Apr 14 20:53 test2

`file' on these gives:

test: Atari 68xxx executable, text len 83228, data len 2136, BSS len
3840, symboltab len 32393, fastload flag, may be loaded to alternate
RAM, malloc may be from alternate RAM, flags: 0x7, no relocation tab

and

test2: Atari 68xxx executable, text len 16480, data len 404, BSS len
1188, symboltab len 13784, fastload flag, may be loaded to alternate
RAM, malloc may be from alternate RAM, flags: 0x7, no relocation tab


What could cause this big difference? It's not very good, if the
programs are to be used on 4MB STs.
