b) IIRC, upx was used to compress these executables. I don't think the the current build process covers this, yet (but then, the current binaries might not be compressed with upx anymore, either - not sure whether that would be a bug). Of course, upx would probably not currently apply to Win64-amd64.

The 9.0 binary hasn't been compressed with upx (yet).
