Well... it is not final build. Everything is build-in, but not 
all functions are called, so maybe gcc is doing some optimizations.
But if Arachne is <500 KB in DOS, with it's own memory management,
WATTCP library and graphics library, why it shouldn't be <300 wit
SVGAlib linked just dynamicaly, not staticaly ?

It's not even pre-alpha yet... but I would really like to make something
available until end of week.
