Try stripping the binary

$ gcc -o text text.c `pkg-config gtk+-2.0 --cflags --libs`
[mohammed localhost misc]$ ls -lh text
- -rwxrwxr-x    1 mohammed mohammed      15K Dec 26 07:32 text*
[mohammed localhost misc]$ strip text
[mohammed localhost misc]$ ls -lh text
- -rwxrwxr-x    1 mohammed mohammed     6.1K Dec 26 07:32 text*
