Summary:                    BusyBox 1.12.2: gzip/gunzip ignore "-c" option
Description: 
The -c option to gzip worked fine in 1.11.3 but is silently ignored in
1.12.2, making very commonly used gzip command lines fail in strange ways.
 For example:
gzip -cd foo.tar.gz | tar xvfp -
tar: short read
Meanwhile foo.tar.gz has been gunzipped and is sitting at foo.tar.
