Debugging turns out to be a big chunk of the problem. A non-debugging  
app bundle comes in at 100M, about 1/3 the size of the debugging  
bundle. libaqbanking.dylib is 640K. Haven't made a .dmg of it yet, so  
I don't know what will be the ultimate download size, and I've got a  
busy weekend planned, but I should have some new images up on  
sourceforge by Tuesday.
