I never worry about code size. For me, it is kind of like carbon
dioxide in the atmosphere. I do my little part (to keep my emissions
to a minimum), but there's not much else I can do. Also, Release vs
Debug will produce different final executable sizes. In the end, the
linker should only use what is needed from the library.

See 
http://groups.google.com/group/cryptopp-users/search?group=cryptopp-users&q=code+size.

Include md5.h, link against the library. No need for attempting to
bring in object files. Let the linker extract the code from the
library.

Google is your friend.
