$ cd /usr/share/doc/debian-policy/fhs
$ gzip -t fhs-2.3.pdf.gz
gzip: fhs-2.3.pdf.gz: unexpected end of file
$ gzip -t fhs-2.3.ps.gz
gzip: fhs-2.3.ps.gz: unexpected end of file

I'm not sure how this could happen, but when I enabled sourcing of the
.sh scripts in rcS.d/, the boot failed because /etc/rcS.d/S01glibc.sh
uses 'exit 0' at the end of the script, and thus terminates the S
runlevel. This script was added in glibc version 2.3.5-5 uploaded
