FFS. The gzip folks are back to this hubris? When it first came out
they tried to usurp the .Z (compress) file extension unstead of
using a nonrude '.gz' as they were quickly convinced to.
Please use "gzcat"; "zcat" is for compress/uncompress and if your
vendor's installing gzcat as zcat they need a fresh complaint.
From "gzip(1)": On some systems, zcat may be installed as gzcat to
preserve the original link to compress.
[ On the BSDs, both are installed as links to gzip ]
