If difference is few bytes, I suppose some difference in compile condition may have contributed. But 30KB is large. Just to be sure, why not recompile without using xconfig. Also check difference in /boot/System.map-2.2.19.... Also are you using right compiler version. Besides, recompile again and see whether result is same or not. If different, you may have had memory corruption during compile.
