No, please don't shrink the icons. If you'd like, you can have code that
shrinks the XPMs for the QNX build. If you shrink the icons, then AbiWord on
Gnome will not look like the rest of Gnome Office. But perhaps this code
might go best in XP-land: the icons are bigger than I like in the win32
build.

Sure - I don't see why not. This'd be a good thing.
