I don't know what Donald was looking at, but I'm not seeing anything
close to that 4k figure here. (Maybe he's on OS X, where framework
builds have a "stub" executable that just execs the real one?)

On my Ubuntu Trusty system, the system Python 3.4 executable is 3.9M,
and the one I compiled myself from source, without any special options,
is almost 12M. (Not really sure what accounts for that difference -
Ubuntu system Python uses shared libraries for more stuff?)
