So, the overhead of having gzip is probably insignifiant in the face of the size of the rest of the system. So, I'm OK with selecting gzip unconditionally. However, I would not want to force-select BB_SHOW_OTHERS, even though we already do it in three locations. Well, damn be it, just select both. Jonathan, care to fix and respin, please?
