checked to make sure that debugging symbols are stripped, but
whereas it used to only be 3.6MB, now it's 7.5MB...the only major
difference I can think of is that I'm compiling the new app
against the 10.2.8.sdk, so I'm wondering if that adds heft to the
final product?

Try running nm on your old and new binaries and then look at the
difference. Maybe you're exporting more symbols ?
...ok, running nm shows me that I've got a lot more symbols in the
small, old version than the bloated new version: I would've expected
it to be the other way?
