As many people have suggested that, it may not be a good idea.  For now
it'll work, but in the last beta Red Hat Linux was configured with a
sendmail that was not SUID.  In order for it to function properly, you
had to run the sendmail server.  Apparently that change was retracted,
but hopefully it will be back at some point  :)

Probably not much.  If it really is unneeded, it'll get swapped out, and
the memory it was using will be free again.

May not be possible until the gcc team gets C++ pre-linking ready for
general consumption.
