After looking closer into the LSB and FSH, it seems that /bin is actually still
used by the standard, and it states:

The following programs, or symbolic links to programs, must be in /bin if the
corresponding subsystem is installed:
...
gzip    The GNU compression utility (optional)
gunzip    The GNU uncompression utility (optional)
...

So I guess that only looking for gzip in /bin/gzip is correct according to the
standard, and the real issue is why no symlink exist in /bin/ for the two
programs. I'll look into this, and possibly file another bug on the subject.
