Hi! While preparing my FreeBSD/mips system, I have to check if /dev/map/cfg contains garbage or stored data. I've found a bug in our gzip(1) utility: it returns same exit code (1) for unrecognized or corrupted data and for correct data having trailing garbage. Meantime, GNU gzip returns exit code 2 when data is correct but has trailing garbage. I've prepared trivial one-line patch for our gzip so it returns 2 in such case making it more compatible with GNU gzip and more embedded friendly :-) https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=203873
