This is what I would do, I compile a kernel only once in a while. If you REALLY need space, then you should TGZ the source tree after doing a "make clean". Alternitevly, bzip2 seems to give better compression. When I see bzip and gzip kernels on the web, the bzip ones are at least a meg or two smaller.
Just remember yo keep you header files "/usr/src/linux/include" i think, or you will be unzipping-rezipping your sourse alot to compile programs
There is no longer anything in the kernel source tree required for compiling user applications. Glibc now provides its own /usr/include/linux and /usr/include/asm. Mark
