This is likely to be the final snapshot.
I hope to make the 1.15 release in the next 3-4 days.

Thanks to Paul Eggert for still more fixes and for all
but one of this snapshot's changes.

New NEWS entries:

  gzip no longer can mistakenly remove the wrong file if some other
  process simultaneously renames a gzip destination's ancestor.
  [bug present since the beginning]

  gzip --synchronous no longer fails to synchronize unreadable parent
  directories on platforms like GNU/Linux that have O_PATH, or to
  synchronize any parent directories on platforms like FreeBSD that
  have O_SEARCH but not O_PATH.
  [bug introduced in gzip-1.7]
