The only thing that I really did was get very fascist about moving stuff to unused/, (I have more things in unused/ than not) and identify a few things in macros/program that need some work (I think I identified like 10 entire files in there that *my* config totally doesn't need). I suspect the reason I saw such big savings is because some of the stuff in macros/program generates a *lot* of $USER_foo_t types unnecessarily (thus the need for more ifdefs to suppress that). I'll make up a proper patch later this week when I have more time...
