	How are we defining "negligible"?  I know I've seen a pruned
kernel 25% smaller than GENERIC for the same release; I /think/ I've
seen one 33% smaller.  Is that difference important?  DammifIkno.
	IF you're feeling paranoid, compile and install both.
(Assuming I'm correct in believing they install clean to separate
directories.)
