I consider this bug fix-released at this point.  Builds at 
http://uec-images.ubuntu.com/karmic/ are now 2G filesystem images.  Their sizes 
are (20091012):
182M karmic-uec-amd64.tar.gz
173M karmic-uec-i386.tar.gz

That is down from a 10G filesystem with download sizes of (20091007):
602M ubuntu-uec-karmic-amd64.img.gz     
592M ubuntu-uec-karmic-i386.img.gz

The resize-uec-image tool can resize those with basically no ill
effects.

The only applicable change to vm-builder that isn't in the karmic-packaged 
version is:
1. run apt-get clean
2. change ec2 image sizes from 10G to 2G

** Changed in: vm-builder (Ubuntu)
       Status: Fix Committed => Fix Released
