Despite the size difference, the kernel from sources seems to work fine on the hardware we have. (Does the vanilla one have more stuff linked in, instead of loading kexts? Haven't a clue.) [snip] Your comparison is flawed. You are comparing a single arch kernel (mach_kernel) with a bi-arch kernel (mach_kernel.org). Run: file /mach_kernel file /mach_kernel.orig Better yet, use 'size' or 'otool'.
