Apologies for posting here, but gentoos bugzilla has gone from being 
incredibly irritating to completely broken.

anyway, Ive got two bugs to report, both to do with gzip_x86, the x86 
optimised version of gzip.

firstly, gzip and gzip_x86 should fill a slot, because they both do the same 
thing.

secondly, gzip_x86 installes to /usr/bin/gzip, whereas gzip installs to 
/bin/gzip. gzip_x86 is wrong. this also causes problems with man.
