The difference might come from .#foo.N.M kind of things.
And ditclean probably doesn't remove .elc files either.  I'd rather
use `cvsclean' instead.  As for why I didn't do the work myself:
it takes too much time on my poor 266Mhz machine to rebuild all
those files.  I already provided a "20MB compressed" estimate based
on the size of the tarball for 21.2 (which includes elc files but doesn't
include some of the newly added files like the elisp manual).
