508 * don't provide a 'compress' link since it breaks things, but provide
509 an 'uncompress' link since it's useful.
510 * fix some administrivia

514 * change gzexe.in to not use BINDIR, but assume gzip is in PATH

519 * switch targets in the Makefile to also install the links called
520 'compress' and 'uncompress' since some utilities care about these,
521 and we're unlikely to ever have a 'compress' package because of the
522 intellectual property issues.

527 * add 'zless' as a near-clone of 'zmore', closes bug 1776
