I made up some simply patch (basically it should be the same as Tanoku's, it 
only additionally disables the AA renderer), which works without the 
preprocessor hackery, it also uses the old 'DISABLE_FANCY_THEMES' define to 
remove unneeded functionallity from the vector renderer code.

Built without DISABLE_FANCY_THEMES defined:

Built with DISABLE_FANCY_TEHEMES defined:
-rw-r--r-- 1 1000 1000  61264 2008-10-27 20:17 graphics/VectorRenderer.o

-rwxr-xr-x 1 1000 1000 2023064 2008-10-27 20:17 scummvm

Note: both are stripped debug builds.
Which is at least on my Linux/amd64 system a size difference of 12864 bytes.

I'm not sure how much size difference that makes on ARM though.
