Hum, having just contributed to said download size... we've done our
best to
minimize the KLOC, removing some cruft and moving a couple of functions
into
a (separate) library, but we'd be down to stripping comments to go
further...
the only other thing I could suggest is using bzip2 instead of gzip:
-rw-r--r-- 1 emile emile 1952068 Feb 19 10:53
php-4.0.4pl1.tar.bz
-rw-r--r-- 1 emile emile 2439189 Feb 19 10:52
php-4.0.4pl1.tar.gz
which is a 20% size reduction without changing anything else.
