Hello,
trying to restore damaged file system (`/usr' in my case) from backup
media, I discovered (again and again) that statically linked `gzip'
is not in `/bin' directory. This makes restoring extremely difficult
if you have only root file system in consistent state and no other
NetBSD binaries around, so I would like to ask: may be it'd be better
to move `gzip' into `/bin'?
