   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
1753624	  20968	  16408	1791000	 1b5418	libc-2.28.so
1758304	  20968	  16408	1795680	 1b6660	libc-2.29.so

So the actual code is of the same size.

The difference seems to be that the second file contains debugging
information:

$ strip libc-2.2?.so
$ ls -l libc-2.2?.so
-rw-rw-r--. 1 fweimer fweimer 1791400 Jul 21 10:39 libc-2.28.so
-rw-rw-r--. 1 fweimer fweimer 1791400 Jul 21 10:39 libc-2.29.so

So it must be a difference in your build environment.

Thanks,
Florian
