As I mentioned in IRC: I can probably easily shave another 2½K off .text
by removing stub support for multiple compressors and using the gzopen()
API already shipped by klibc.
Note that klibc bundles zlib 1.2.3 whereas even MirBSD has 1.2.8
already. That would also need updating. But at least, MirBSD compress
uses zlib for gzip I/O instead of bundling its own inflate/deflate
functions as GNU gzip does.
All is 2-clause and 3-clause BSD and MIT licence.
