	If you use cc driver, the standard libc.a library will be used, if
    you use f77, libmpc.a will be used so there will be a difference of
    about 70K (too lazy to confirm here :-)) in size between the two a.out.
    That's my best guess.  Compiling with -v and the linker will tell you
    exactly which libraries get linked.
