*nods* Still scratching for an answer, I installed the
sources for gzip, and found this tidbit in the README:
WARNING: on several systems, compiler bugs cause gzip to fail, in
particular when optimization options are on. See the section "Special
targets" at the end of the INSTALL file for a list of known problems.
For all machines, use "make check" to check that gzip was compiled
correctly. Try compiling gzip without any optimization if you have a
problem.
