But it turned out, that it wasn't worth it, because the next update I had to recompile the hole thing for hours and hours again, and what I had won was to little to be worth the hassle. If "-Os" worked depended on both the OOo version and the GCC version... and there goes another compile for hours and hours... Was an interesting experience, but not worth it in the long run.
