Subject: [Buildroot] tar rootfs compression and copy-image-to don't work
	together?

If I enable building a tar rootfs with gzip compression and configure
buildroot to copy the image to /tftpboot, the tar file that gets
copied to /tftboot isn't compressed.

There is a compressed tar file in output/images, but buildroot copies
the _uncompressed_ tar file to /tftpboot.

Is this a bug, or am I misunderstanding the configuration options?
