I thought this was fixed? Did the fix not make it in?
It is _important_ that the simple stdin/stdout case of gzip work:
x | gzip | y
and
y | gzip -d | x
*LOTS* of stuff uses it that way.
It cannot require the -c or -.

Yes. Although, there must be other dependencies for poweroff also-
halt and reboot work for me, but not poweroff. Maybe it is broken
only for kernel 2.2.x? Does poweroff need something here?
