Thanks. A more general fix for all dist-* compressors, with hopefully as uniform naming scheme as is possible throughout, and autoconf.texi and NEWS update, was already on my list of things to do. (There are some prior bug reports too.) If you can provide anything, be my guest, otherwise I'll try to either fix things within a week or so, or take your patch for now. Is that OK? Thanks, Ralf
