Hmmm, I just checked the binary of my asterisk server that I hand-built
on an x86 LFS system. It is 11Mb.

IIRC correctly you can instruct the build process to not include certain
modules - maybe that could help reduce the size.

However, I just ran strip -s /usr/sbin/asterisk and my binary went from
11M down to 1.1M!

I restarted asterisk and it all seems to be fine.
