    Based on what I see from that, the 'ps.o' which has the extra
    strcmp is about 40 bytes larger than the one without it. And
    now that you mention it, doing a plain 'ls -l' of ps.o shows
    that it is only 40 bytes larger. It's when you combine that
    file with the other *.o files, and strip it, that the final
    result ends up 3940 bytes larger.

    So maybe this has something to do with how linking is done
    for ELF modules. Unfortunately, I need to be concentrating
    on something else right now...
