its most probably the -g3/-ggdb3 bloat. and this option should be removed
from build flags atleast so the native binaries dont bloat.

here is a little change that you will need

its ok with other libcs for angstrom as the flag has already been
removed from them. Try this and rebake git-native after cleaning it

Thx
