I forgot to include comparison numbers for HEAD:
$ wc guc*c
2629 9372 69467 guc-file.c
13335 41584 356896 guc.c
15964 50956 426363 total
$ size guc*o
text data bss dec hex filename
13653 4 112 13769 35c9 guc-file.o
105848 63156 908 169912 297b8 guc.o
This isn't completely apples-to-apples because of the few
hook functions I'd moved to other places in v1, but you can
see that the total text and data sizes didn't change much.
It'd likely indicate a mistake if they had. (However, v1
does include const-ifying a few options tables that had
somehow escaped being labeled that way, so the total data
size did shrink a small amount.)
