There's more than one problem. I removed the FLAG_c setting from
gzip_main() because I'd converted do_gunzip(), but I didn't convert
do_gzip() and that still needs it...

Sorry for the delay answering, my burst of free time ran out and I had
to pack up and and drive cross-country for work. I'll try to get this
fixed (and passing all the tests) by monday.

(I'm also sorry I treated gzip.c as a command in pending. Maybe I should
move all the pending commands android's using to the android directory
so I don't make that mistake again...)

P.S. The gzip tangent I wandered off on before running out of time was
generic plumbing to handle file.ext->file and file->file.ext, preferably
integrated with the "patch" and "sed -i" file replacement stuff which
means rethinking those. I mention it because I deleted it to focus on
getting this stuff working again, so hopefully this not will remind me
where I left off...

P.P.S. Well, the other tangent was writing up proper ps documentation,
with more cleanup passes on ps to try to simplify it and make it more
understandable. I got maybe the first 1/5 of that checked in even, woo!
It was nice to have some free time over the holidays to work on
something that wasn't an immediate crisis again...
