While building an (unsupported, i know) stripped down install, I

Files are the same size in my GENERIC 3.7 install. It's because
they're statically linked (hence sbin not bin) to libcrypto.
That's /sbin (and /bin), not /usr/sbin etc. Programs in / are meant to
be able to run without having /usr mounted.
5001 [bootes ~]% file /usr/sbin/host
/usr/sbin/host: ELF 64-bit MSB executable, SPARC64, version 1, for
OpenBSD, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), stripped

libc/libcrypto etc. are dynamically linked, it's the statically-linked
parts of libdns taking the space (/usr/obj/usr.sbin/bind/lib/)
