I've been waiting a week for a response to this question- I appreciate
your efforts. As I explained, I only get a huge
library when I compile the files separately; catting them together
and compiling them as one .cc file produces a tiny library.
Not only that, but this is *library* size, before linking,
so the size of libg++ hasn't even been factored in yet.

All I'm trying to find out is whether gcc 2.5.x improves the
template expansion size situation or not. Anybody know?
