8 hours is slow for me. Some of that must have been sleep :-)
I thought I could at least make up by doing .Z as well as .gz to do a 
thorough job.
P.S. Where did the gunzip command line come from in the original "patch" 
suggestion? It sure doesn't match what the man page said. -o doesn't 
exist and -S is for supplying suffixes.

All contributions for fast solutions always welcome :-)
