I doubt MSDOS, OS2, ATARI would be supported by Gnulib. I haven't used
them so I can't say for sure. But they are old.

Good point. It is only used in 'gzip_base_name' from util.c. It looks
like that is used in a few files to convert the input file name to the
archive file name. Probably needed for some proprietary systems,
although I'm not sure which ones.
