One thing I've been wondering is what purpose the dynamically-linked
makedumpfile(8) is intended to serve. The program only ever runs in a
Linux crash environment, where two kernels are loaded in memory, and
everything is running out of the second kernel's initrd---is the 800kB
difference in the binary sizes that big a deal, or something?

Could be worth filing a wishlist bug on the Debian side....
