400MB is 400MB... or, if you'd prefer 17% of overall size that was mentioned 
there. Additional testing might be nice in order to get a better idea of what 
we're looking at in practice (I guess a clang build would be another good 
choice), but the overall patch seems to be small and in a lot of ways 
simplifying for how we're linking.
