It may not downsize the packages themselves, but moving kernel mods from
rootfs to the kernel image will reduce the rootfs size. Leaving more
space for JFFS2 rootfs_data.

Having a "K" setting for kernel options would be great.
Will try to have a look at it during the next weeks.

Thanks for all your help
