I noticed it about 3 years ago: http://www.delorie.com/djgpp/mail-archives/browse.cgi?p=djgpp-workers/2002/10/14/02:25:16 I stopped using UPX after that time. Only tested time at time. I know that UPX-1.93 is OK. Anyway size of uncompressed stripped binaries is generally not a problem (perhaps expect some small embeded systems). Andris
