   Is it better just adding -l support to distrib/utils/x_gzip?
   Or x_gzip should be removed?


x_gzip is basically an old version of usr.bin/gzip.  ideally the latter
can be updated to remove more features with -DSMALL and x_gzip has no
sources in it... things i can see off hand:

	- remove support for changing function based on argv[0] (few lines)

	- remove recursive support (few dozen lines)

	- could go as far as removing any compression support - ie only
	support extraction

	- could remove support for keeping timestamps & filenames, etc

	- could remove support for $GZIP handling

	- remove compress(1) support


tho some of these would be pretty #ifdef invasive in the code and i'm not
sure i'd want to support thme...
