Subject: textutils very big m68k

The textutils package in the Incoming dir on master for the m68k
architecture is 1.1 meg big, much bigger than the ?? k under i386.
Is this normal or did something went wrong during building, I 
would like to know because I'm maintaining the thing right now.
Can't download it myself, because I'm using a paid line of 14k4,
so that would take at least 10 minutes to download the thing. Can
someone tell me what happened with this (dpkg --contents text*)

The binaries are all enormous, about 10x what they are on my i386.
Maybe it wasn't stripped?  Also, the foreign language support at the
end?
