So far I've just included with the email on the hackers list. I
have made one fix since: I found that an explicit close of stdout
speeds the worst-case situation to break-even. (I'm guessing that's
safer, too.) So in all of my tests it is now as fast or faster to
pipe through this on the way to gzip than to just pipe through gzip.

I'll see about getting that onto pgfoundry soon.
