Ok.
Can we place a simple sentence (what we mean by build size)somewhere in the
book,because I think there is no such a note.

Most of them are,some (few) are not.
espgs is about 6 Mb here,xorg-server around 2 MB,gtk+ and libx11 around
1 MB.

I double checked in the last Imagemagick installation.
I have had a 3 MB of difference.

Ok I admit it.I am considering the fact that Imagemagick is one of the biggest 
builds of the Book,it's not so much of a real problem.
And when I am thinking that a lot of people are using custom scripts and will 
have
to change them for my "unification",it's not really worths the trouble.
