 980233 Feb  6 11:15 /boot/vmlinuz-2.5.59-mjb3
 914965 Feb  6 09:34 /boot/vmlinuz-2.5.59-mjb3.old

Those were probably the right files. (O2 and Os respectively)
I didn't look too  closely at the time. Looks like 2.95 produces
smaller files with O2 than 3.2 does with -Os. Bah.

/me cheers for gcc 2.95.4
