I don't know the exact circumstances, but basically this means that gzip was trying to duplicate a file descriptor, and gave a bad file descriptor either for the source or target argument. If you have some context, I may be able to give more detail -- how is gzip being invoked? Can you use truss or the like to figure out what it's trying to do?
