I would fix the crashing problem, if somebody would distinctly point out a
repeatable crash scenario. I haven't been able replicate any bug reports
to locate where the bugs are. I haven't been able to recompile gzip with the
new ORCA/C 2.1 because gnolib needs to be recompiled to link with it.
Basically, nothing forthcoming.
