The size increase is from binary distributives, port's distfile generated from github
repo so there is no way to remove them.
But you're right, I should have been more verbose. The long story short, a few years
ago Japheth (the original creator/maintainer of jwasm) is disappeared. A few people
continue to develop jwasm, there're at least one hard fork with the name change(uasm),
one dead project and relatively conservative github/Jwasm/Jwasm with only bugfixes.
In the previous pr pfg@ suggested switch to it and I've agreed. Of course shortly
before that Japheth reappeared and a few days ago he released his own jwasm 2.13
version. Therefore I've decided to switch to Japheth's version again.
