Recent versions of upx can compress a linux bzImage (I've seen 13% shaved off
a bzImage). debian-installer may use it to squeeze more onto the single
floppy (kernel + initrd with modules).

OK, I'm rather annoyed. Recently I'm doing "squash bugs on my packages"

occured over the past week.
Not one of the NMUers mailed me before doing that.
Only 1 actually filed a bug with a diff.
