 The info and elc files are back in the core tar file.  I'm sure
 this accounts for almost all the size increase. 
Yup.  In 21.2.19 the -info tarball is 1.5MB and the -elc tarball is
.79MB.

If having these put into the core is a problem I will take them back
out.

If you have a problem with the size and you are living in an area with
highly expensive telecommunications, your vote counts for more.
