But given the way our d= evelopment timeframes operate, we might spend a lot of effort getting GDBse= rver down to 30K, only to find out it didn't really matter anymore because = even GDB's smallest supported targets have 4G of RAM or more.

If I was willing= to have it dynamically linked it would presumably be quite a lot smaller, = but that means it won't help me debug problems involving library loading. paul
