This shows that it is actually a gzipped file.  Setup knows
what to do with both bzip2 and gzip formats, without relying
on the extension being right.

It is actually a gzipped empty tar file - the new gcc-core binary
package (which is in the "Misc" group) seems to be a placeholder
for the associated sources.
