I only tried zgrep. But as I said, all these scripts look pretty trivial, and 
I can't find any mention of shell dependencies in gzip sources. On Debian all 
of these scrips use the /bin/sh shebang, and AFAIK Debian does not guarantee 
/bin/sh to point to bash. I think we can safely assume that any POSIX-like 
shell will work.
