This mean that file for 9.0 must be stripped ?

RHAS-2.1:
tsearch2.so 152888 bytes

RH9.0:
tsearch2.so 951236 bytes

compiling this file from a postgresql-7.4.tar.gz
on a RH9.0 I obtain:
libtsearch2.so.0.0 158565 bytes

that is most like a RHAS2.1 size.

RH9.0 where I compiled the tar.gz:

ldd libtsearch2.so.0.0
libm.so.6 => /lib/tls/libm.so.6 (0x4003d000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/tls/libc.so.6 (0x42000000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x80000000)

RH9.0:

ldd tsearch2.so
libm.so.6 => /lib/tls/libm.so.6 (0x40040000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/tls/libc.so.6 (0x42000000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x80000000)

RHAS2.1:

ldd tsearch2.so
libm.so.6 => /lib/i686/libm.so.6 (0x4002c000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/i686/libc.so.6 (0x4004f000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x80000000)

RHAS-2.1:

note that there is no warning about the debugging symbols :-(

is strange because the gdb on libtsearch2.so.0.0 ( 158565 bytes )
don't complain neather about the debugging symbols...

Am I crazy ?
