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
