Just so I understand the context: what part of util-linux does gzip
depend on for its tests (that should be written in a comment)?

Since gzip is built at the very end of the bootstrap process, is
“untested-gzip” really needed?  For instance, couldn’t the final gzip be
built against an util-linux that is itself built against %boot5-inputs?

Thanks,
Ludo’.
