>Description:
gzip -cd and zcat fails to uncompress multiple files.
>How-To-Repeat:
% zcat a.gz b.gz > /dev/null
zcat: failed fwrite: Bad file descriptor
>Fix:
file_uncompress() in gzip.c:
845 if (cflag == 0) {
...snip...
855 } else
856 out = stdout;
857
858 if ((size = gz_uncompress(in, out)) == 0) {
859 unlink(outfile);
860 goto lose;
861 }
862 if (fclose(out))
863 maybe_err(1, "failed fclose");
this fclose() is unnecessary if cflags != 0.
