Odd, that's not what I'm seeing here.

in fs/common.mk the compression stuff is handled by creating the
compressed variant IN ADDITION to the uncompressed file, E.G.:

gzip -9 -c /home/peko/source/buildroot/test/images/rootfs.cpio > \
     /home/peko/source/buildroot/test/images/rootfs.cpio.gz

So output/images/rootfs.cpio still exists when the kernel is rebuilt.
