Oh, yes; definitely planned for any actual releases.  XZ saves a lot
of save (the .xz is ~3/4 the size of the .gz), but it's definitely a
fairly new thing.  I just didn't feel like bothering for a snapshot.

Certainly you can de/recompress it for local stuff.  Or just don't
recompress, and blat the .tar around.  It's about 3 meg uncompressed,
cheap enough on a LAN.

Oh, Sun.  How do we love thee?  Let me count the way.

Probably a fair chance it has gcc installed.  If so, you could edit
the Makefile and change the 'CC = cc' line to invoke gcc instead.
