Some years ago I have ported sed-3.02.80.tar.gz and gzip-1.3.tar.gz
for my private use. The sed port has no changes to the source at all.
The gzip port is based on Eli's gzp124a?.zip package. This implies
that all djgpp specific functionality known from gzip-1.24a will be
available at gzip-1.3 too. These ports have worked for me for 1 or 2 years
without difficulties. I know that these GNU packages have all alpha status
(there are from alpha.gnu.org) so I do not know if there are welcome at all.
BTW I have started porting attempts of tar-1.13.19 and findutils-1.4.7. These
are alphas too. Let me know if any of this ports are welcome and if there are
djgpp specific issues in one or more of this ports that should be fixed.
Concerning tar and findutils, if tere is someone else who has already started
to port these packages or wants to port them, please let me know so I can stop
this job.

As usual:
comments, suggestions, patches, objections are welcome.

I will wait a couple of days to see if there is any positive or negative
response to this issue. If I get no response I will assume that there is
no interest at all.

Regards,
Guerrero, Juan Manuel
