I can understand why the size of sh might be different. Different
patch levels. (Built almost 2 months apart).

Same as mine:

$ bash --version
GNU bash, version 3.2.25(0)-release (i386-portbld-freebsd6.2)
Copyright (C) 2005 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

I'm not too sure why my bash is different in size. I guess it sucked
in slightly different code when built due to our base systems being the
2 months apart.
