   I'm not able to confirm this; the size of the arrays as near as I can tell
is much smaller than this - less than 1K each total.

   Is this in -current or -stable? I just looked at the result of compiling
the matcd driver, and I can't confirm your results:

[corbin:CORBINX] size matcd.o
text    data    bss     dec     hex
10704   1328    6916    18948   4a04

   Also, since the table you mentioned is uninitialized data, it should appear
in the .bss in any case...this isn't a problem - we're only interested in the
actual size of the binary.
   I must be missing something.
