This is a bug in gcc-3.4.x. I confirmed why the size becomes larger, and 
reported it to GCC Bugzilla:

http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=16103

This problem can be simply ignored, but my suggestion is not to use 
gcc-3.4.x until this bug is fixed. I will look at the source code of 
GCC if I have time.

Thanks,
