Can you send us the output of:
find /usr/local/xorp -name "*" -print|xargs ls -l
so we can see exactly what files you are currently using?

Do you need the policy features?  I started looking at conditionally
compiling that out the other day, but it looked fairly invasive so
I went on to other things.  Still, it might be worth a try.

Also, I'll add an option to compile with -Os (optimize for size)
to see if that helps the binary size...

Thanks,
Ben
