As gzip-1.5 testsuite fail because less is not yet build, I tested this workaround

ln -sf /tools/bin/true /usr/bin/less

and testsuite no more fail. But it may be prefered to build less before gzip.

Another point is that 'checking for an assembler syntax supported by this package' has been fixed on 1.5 release, so build try to build with assembler part and it fail in my hardened configuration. I resolved to use DEFS='NO_ASM' ./configure as Fedora use that and say gcc compiled code is faster than assembler code (I haven't tested).

Unsure what it does with a standard gcc.

Thanks for the hint about Less; I simply moved chapter 6's less to before gzip in the build order. The ASM seems fine on a standard (non-hardened) GCC.

Fixed at r9889.
