obese __LINKEDIT section

Hi,

I'm working on the OSX port of an open source 3d modeller (http://aztec.sourceforge.net), and I've begun to be rather worried about the sheer size of the executables being produced (43M for a stripped deployment executable!). Running objdump on the executable, it's obvious that the __LINKEDIT section is the culprit -- it's 35 times the size of the code and data combined.

Is this just a sad fact of life, or is there something I can do about it?

Toby.
