I couldn't duplicate this discrepancy between -Os and -O1 with gcc-2.95.2 on
PowerPC: -Os gives the smallest kernel as you would expect, by a small margin:

% powerpc-linux-size vmlinux.O1
   text data bss dec hex filename
 872076 70512 99356 1041944 fe618 vmlinux.O1
% powerpc-linux-size vmlinux.O2
   text data bss dec hex filename
 864624 70512 99356 1034492 fc8fc vmlinux.O2
% powerpc-linux-size vmlinux.Os
   text data bss dec hex filename
 859596 70512 99356 1029464 fb558 vmlinux.Os
