Hello.

Has the Mercury runtime grown recently? Just to see what would happen, I
compiled my graphics assignment (written with Mercury 0.8 [or 0.8.1] in
mind) with rotd-1999-10-10.. and noticed that the binary produced was
about 26k larger. I used the same Mmakefile, which sets the mcflags
--intermodule-optimization, -O 6, and the mgnucflag
-DML_OMIT_ARRAY_BOUNDS_CHECKS. With 0.8 the binary was 63,764 bytes, and
with the ROTD it was 89,564 bytes.

I'm just curious as to why.
