I removed a few checks in configure.in that are not needed for use in luatex, and then I had to regenerate configure with my newer autotools installation. I do not understand which of those two actions actually fixed it. > well, the executable grows much larger now (6.8M stripped vs. 3.8 stripped) > There is only 1.3M to catch up XeTeX's size ^_^ > (well, luigi said : "it's new. it's powerful. it's luatex.", and I > think we can also add "it's big" before "it's new") Some two megabytes of the executable is static data from fontforge's Unicode library. In the previous version, I was able to cut that down to a quarter of its size by removing unnecessary data and dropping some of the CJK legacy encodings. Perhaps I will do that again when we reach the beta-release stage for 0.40. But perhaps not, because it makes importing new fontforge releases harder, and we could use a proper embedded Unicode handling library anyway.
