Why does compiling a kernel (make buildkernel KERNCONF=GENERIC) take
7 times as much space on 5.0-current than it does on 4.7-stable?

On a 4.7-stable box, /usr/obj/usr/src/sys totals 34 MB.

On a 5.0-current box, /usr/obj/usr/src/sys totals 270 MB!

(for each box, I rm /usr/obj/*, make buildworld, then make buildkernel
KERNCONF=GENERIC)
