Incidentally, what do people normally use to read compressed BackupPC log
files?  The docs say they're compressed with zlib, and so does
/usr/bin/file, but gzip can't read them.

Back in the day 'uncompress' probably would have done it (although that
would be .Z, not .z), but uncompress seems to just be a link to gzip now,
at least on Debian.  It took some searching but I eventually found
zlib-flate which can do it ... but this seems like a rather obscure tool.

# uncompress -c LOG.0.z | head
gzip: LOG.0.z: not in gzip format
