try this
--
HOSTTYPE=$(bin/package)
mkdir arch/$HOSTTYPE-space
bin/package make HOSTTYPE=$HOSTTYPE-space PACKAGE_OPTIONS=optimize-space
--
and then compare the size of
arch/$HOSTTYPE-space/bin
vs
arch/$HOSTTYPE/bin
(there's nothing magic about the name $HOSTTYPE-space other than its
different from $HOSTTYPE, you could have done the original build
with the default HOSTTYPE and PACKAGE_OPTIONS set)
if you are building the ast-open package all of the shell commands in
libcmd link to one a.out in $INSTALLROOT/bin
