This includes ALL of the devices (printers, image formats, etc.), by 
default.  Compiling with only bmp256 produced 6MB file.  Hand editing 
Makefile to include only the drivers I wanted produced this same 6MB file.
I don't know why it is doubled in size.  Maybe they built in Chinese 
fonts?  These are now standalone executables by default.  No added fonts 
need, or init files.

The default 8.54 was about 3MB, with many fewer devices.

Both without X ijs jasper and with jbig2dec.
