Ahem.... 16 -2.4 = 13.6 MB

Do you *really* think that should be a problem ?

At least, I second Richard's concern : make crunchgen an option, for
poeple who want to keep separate binaries. ATML (*), if sh*t should
happen, sh*it will happen, and, as discussed in an other thread todays
hard disks tend to be less robust that 10 years ago. Especially 2.5" on
laptops.
