frankengcc: detailed savings

This table shows a detailed comparison of the Mozilla M18 shared libraries. Specifically, it compares two builds made with the following configure options:

--enable-optimize
--disable-debug
--disable-tests
--enable-strip-libs

The data under gcc-2.95.2 was collected using the Unix size command on files built using a stock gcc-2.95.2 compiler. The data under frankengcc-2.95.2 was collected the same way on files built using a modified gcc-2.95.2 compiler. Savings are shown both in bytes and as a percentage of the old .so size.
