Hello all,
I am trying to build a minimal size FreeBSD 9 installation and I
noticed that the size of nologin is almost 200k.
I built FreeBSD from source so I checked the distribution, and it's also 200k.
So I went back to the source and just compiled nologin.c and it came up to 5k.

Can anyone explain why this executable is so large?
