You can't just replace compress with gzip for X because there are two
places in the X tree where uncompression is done in-line (server code
and font code.)  I'm almost finished with some patches to use "zlib"
directly instead, which will eliminate the last place debian has any
need for the compress algorithm :-)

ps. Yes, I suggested months ago that this would be "trivial" -- which
is why I'm finally getting around to doing it :-)
