Description:
HP/UX 11.23 packages are significantly larger than the other HP/UX versions.

It appears they are built with debug symbols which takes mysqld from 25MB to over 250MB.  

Jonathon Perkin mention on support-private that this is because of a bug on HP/UX, but I would like to at least see the reasons documented and if there is any ability to work around it with more investigation.

How to repeat:
N/A

HP-UX is EOL as a platform for all currently maintained MySQL release series
