In theory yes; in practice I doubt it, since we seem to have
accidentally broken non-GNU makes so many times, I guess everyone just
uses GNU make anyway (like the person who reported the HP make issue did
before even reporting it).

We survived this far without checking for that.
Some gzips return non-zero if compression did not reduce the file size,
which should not happen with any of the .el files, but you never know.
So perhaps this is something to save for trunk.
