Sorry; I'm not sure how I fooled myself on that -- I didn't keep the

Hello,
I was facing a problem in some Makefile/shell-scripting and finally I
could nail it down:
when you set the environment variable GZIP to something, for example to
let it point to gzip itself, it tries 1st to unpack this file:
$ GZIP=/usr/bin/gzip export GZIP
$ $GZIP -dc source.tar.gz | wc
