What's the bug?  Can you post a short program that calls `atoi' and 
exhibits the bug?

Errr, as opposed to what?  Some other compiler?  Then maybe some of those 
warnings tell you the cause for the bug?  In my experience, any warning 
that appears without -Wall is real trouble, so you should never disregard 
them.

Add -s switch to the gcc link command line, and you will get back to 150K 
or so.
