I agree that for a specific installation I can get by with less. However I'm 
building the package for inclusion in debian, not just for my own use. What 
grades would you recommend that I include for general consumption, while 
still keeping the size down?

Currently I'm using these grades:
For i386, powerpc, alpha, m68k, mips:
hlc.gc,hlc.par.gc,asm_fast.gc,asm_fast.gc.prof,asm_fast.gc.memprof,asm_fast.gc.tr,asm_fast.gc.tr.debug,asm_fast.gc.prof.tr

For ia64, hppa (no non-local gotos):
hlc.gc,hlc.par.gc,reg.gc,reg.gc.prof,reg.gc.memprof,reg.gc.tr,reg.gc.tr.debug,reg.gc.prof.tr

For arm, mipsel, s390 (no non-local gotos or global register variables):
hlc.gc,hlc.par.gc,none.gc,hlc.gc.prof,hlc.gc.memprof,hlc.gc.tr,none.gc.tr.debug,hlc.gc.prof.tr
