A question of size.

I'm running a version of emacs that I believe was a windows binary.
Its version info says:

   GNU Emacs 24.0.50.1 (i386-mingw-nt6.1.7600) of 
             2010-05-11 on SHAN-PC

Today I grabbed the version mentioned in Sean S.  Latest notice.
emacs-20101130-bin-i386.zip

Which says all the same stuff except for the machine built on:
   GNU Emacs 24.0.50.1 (i386-mingw-nt6.1.7600) of 
             2010-11-30 on 3249CTO

But I notice a rather massive difference in size between the older and
current versions:

Older:
ls -sh  ~/emacs/bin/emacs.exe

  9.1M emacs/bin/emacs.exe



Newer:

ls -sh  ~/unpack/emacs-24.0.50/bin/emacs.exe
35M /cygdrive/c/Users/harry/unpack/emacs-24.0.50/bin/emacs.exe
 
The more recent binary is 26 MB larger.  Thats nearly 300 percent
bigger. 

Is this normal or something I've caused some how?
