Thanks for making .gz still available; right now I can't extract .xz on 
most boxes on which I build toolchains. (If you don't mind, could you 
point me at the source for what I should be using to extract xz? I got 
lost when it went through various name changes and not having a 
gzip-compatible interface.)

Also, I am happy to report that I was able to successfully build and 
test on Darwin/ppc. This is a significant improvement over 2.8.1 which, 
as I recall, didn't build on Darwin.
