Texinfo makes a bad assumption that if gzip.exe exists, then gunzip.exe also exists. On recent cygwin, this is not true (with gzip 1.3.9, gunzip was merely a symlink to the real gzip.exe, and the cygwin port of coreutils no longer puts .exe suffixes on symlinks; and with gzip 1.3.12, gunzip is a shell script and must not have the .exe suffix).
