IIRC /boot/kernel/kernel.debug is still being installed, which takes up
32 MB of disk space. This probably needs to go since it is a significant
amount of space for something that most people won't use; you can get away
with a 40-50 MB root fs on 4.7-RELEASE (inc. modules.old and kernel.old).

Also these debugging options in src/lib/libc_r/Makefile should probably
be commented out again:

# Uncomment this if you want libc_r to contain debug information for
# thread locking.
CFLAGS+=-D_LOCK_DEBUG

# enable extra internal consistancy checks
CFLAGS+=-D_PTHREADS_INVARIANTS
