Felix,
I've verified that running the 'strip -x -v *' command against my Wine object 
libs reduces the modules size more than ten times. Its size now it is about 
the same as for the rpm installed modules.

I've not found a solution yet to recompile only one module if, for example, I 
need to test different patches against the same source.

Thanks
