I noticed that also, but I guess Simon meant the release mode 
executables. The situation is much better in release mode, at least on 
Windows: Compiling the boost::fsm examples with GCC invariably results 
in executables ~200KB bigger than compiled with MSVC7.1. I'm not sure 
why this offset exists, maybe one could get rid of it by specifying 
different command-line switches.
