Yes and no. I assumed that our <prefix>/lib/openpkg/tar in the
bootstrap package wants to find "gzip" in $PATH (which is not the case
just for the bootstrap package, the "gzip" package would have to be
installed, too) and hence would not automatically be able to use our
<prefix>/lib/openpkg/gzip. But we have to double-check its sources to be
sure...
