These probably need to be analyzed individually as you show a 60K size 
difference whereas "size *.o" on the affected object files only totals about 
20K. If you're looking at the size of the file, then it matters if you're 
looking at the size of the unstripped binary in the build tree or the stripped 
binary after installation.

If the file isn't there then the internal table is still used.
