 ## We order DIST_TARGETS by expected duration of the compressors,
 ## slowest first, for better parallelism in "make dist".  Do not
 ## reorder DIST_ARCHIVES, users may expect gzip to be first.
+##
+## Traditionally, gzip prepended the contents of the GZIP environment
+## variable to its arguments, and the commands below formerly used
+## this by invoking 'GZIP=$(GZIP_ENV) gzip'.  The GZIP environment
+## variable is now considered to be obsolescent, so the commands below
+## now use 'eval GZIP= gzip $(GZIP_ENV)' instead; this should work
+## with both older and newer gzip implementations.  The 'eval' is to
+## support makefile assignments like 'GZIP_ENV = "-9 -n"' that quote
+## the GZIP_ENV right-hand side because that was needed with the
+## former invocation pattern.
