That is still several times larger than bmf (which supports three backends
in the same binary):

-rwxr-xr-x    1 tommy    tommy       36576 Oct 16 11:55 bmf

How did you compile bogofilter?  Compiling version 0.7.4 with an empty
CFLAGS (no debug, no optimizations) gives me this:

-rwxr-xr-x    1 tommy    tommy     1467629 Oct 16 11:51 bogofilter

Using -O2 gives a negligible improvement.  And it's still linked with
libJudy.so, which is:

-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     staff      138576 Oct 16 11:46 libJudy.so
