The binary size of normal.mod would grow about 264 bytes whereas in
minicmd.mod it would be just 260 bytes.
But I already forgot that Bean wants to get rid of normal.mod.

So what should I do now?
Placing it in normal.mod or minicmd.mod where it's included in rescue
mode or placing it into a true.mod where the size increase would be
bigger?
