This is as expected if the locally built binary contains debug 
information. This is enabled by default if ./configure is run without 
'CXXFLAGS=...' argument and the compiler accepts '-g' option.

Cross compiling requires a bunch of ./configure parameters. All official 
binaries were cross compiled under Linux using the same Docker image and 
same build recipes as our CI builds.

Then there is likely something wrong with the locally used toolchain or 
runtime library.
