Surely it is not the size of the CF that is at issue (I use 32MB ones, but 
they are increasingly hard to find so having started using 64MB ones).

The big issue is the size of mfsroot when it has been gunzipped into memory.  
I really don't want to sacrifice more than 16MB of memory to the m0n0 runtime 
on my 64MB 4501.  I actually have a 32MB 4511 and this is going to struggle 
to swallow a much bigger firmware image than the current.
