I don't think you noticed what I was talking about.  I am not saying
the documentation for these functions is way off or anything like that.
 All I am saying is that there are two pairs of functions here, and
their summary lines do not match up.

The summaries for gzdeflate and gzinflate are a match: Deflate, then
inflate.

But for gzcompress and gzuncompress the summaries are not a match:
Compress a string, then uncompress a deflated string.

There is no mention of deflating the string in the summary for
gzcompress.  All I am asking for is to make these two pairs of
functions have summaries that match with the other.

The difference is clearly stated in the manual.
gzencode() includes the gzip headers, while gzcompress don't.

Description:
------------
These two make sense:

gzdeflate -- Deflate a string
gzinflate -- Inflate a deflated string

These two do not:

gzcompress -- Compress a string
gzuncompress -- Uncompress a deflated string

I don't know the internal of these functions well enough to say which
way would be correct, but the way it is now is clearly not accurate. 
Both of them say it is acting on a deflated string, however
gzcompress() does not say it creates a deflated string.

Any clarity would be nice.  Thank you.
