Hello Paul, all,

Here's a quick look at gzip 1.3.7, see the patch below.

I also noticed that the gnu.org web page is missing a symlink
  index.html -> gzip.html

and that it doesn't include a pointer to the bug-gzip address.
Moreover, it's not clear to me where the mailing list is archived.
Routed to bug-gnu-utils?

Cheers,
Ralf

        * gzexe.in: Work around FreeBSD shell trap bug.
        * gzip.1: Fix typo.
        * doc/gzip.texi: Likewise.
