I do not expect that the compiler itself is producing any different code (unless you were to change switches). Try just re-doing the a.ld on the Ultra 10 after doing the rest of the make on the ultra 1. Also, poke around in /usr/lib and I suspect you will find libraries of different sizes (either due to patches on one machine v.s. the other or architecture specific libraries).
