Was there some major change in the pascal library (or in what gets linked to
pascal programs) between hpux 5.3 and 6.21 ?

Unless I'm on drugs, a small test program that compiled to a 35K file under 5.3
now results in a 70K executable.  (And no, neither file is stripped.  Stripped
the numbers are about 28K and 64K respectively.)

I don't actually use pascal, but it seems that binaries produced by cc are also
much fatter under 6.21.
