After UPX, it's down to 3.9M (compare to 7.8MB below).
Good stuff. I think you need to be a bit careful with strip, it's possible to break linking if you take too much off (I seem to remember breaking it at some point anyway). Test carefully! You could take a look at projects like Inkscape. It'd be interesting to see how large the stack they use is --- they have put a lot of time into this sort of issue.
