I don't follow your logic.
You suggest changing mk/tools/tools.SunOS.mk

TOOLS_PLATFORM.gunzip?=         /usr/bin/gzip -df
TOOLS_PLATFORM.gzcat?=          /usr/bin/gzip -cd
TOOLS_PLATFORM.gzip?=           /usr/bin/gzip -nf ${GZIP}

to

TOOLS_PLATFORM.gunzip?=         /usr/bin/gunzip -f
TOOLS_PLATFORM.gzcat?=          /usr/bin/gzcat
TOOLS_PLATFORM.gzip?=           /usr/bin/gzip -nf ${GZIP}

but, 'gzcat' is that same thing as 'gzip -cd'
So what difference would that make??? Are you sure you're not just confused
about how gzip operates?
