     Well actually, it could just be a commentary on the size of the symbol
table; here's some size(1) of a local version of emacs called jove:

	M68020 system
text    data    bss     dec     hex
105472  25600   107776  238848  3a500

	M88k system
text    data    bss     dec     hex
178176  21504   92308   291988  47494
