I've been up and down the docs, and I see people using GZipped files. But
when I try to load them, i get garbage. Basically it loads it as raw data
from the local file system.

test = LOAD 'file:///home/hadoop/testme1.
gz'  using PigStorage('\u0002');

dump test;

Even when I load it from s3, still no dice.

I'm using pig on amazon. Is it too old for this functionality?
