I can confirm that both VMs are using /bin/gunzip and have the same
checksum.
$ which gunzip
/bin/gunzip
$ sha512sum /bin/gunzip

/bin/gunzip
I tried with a smaller file 'kernel_headers.gz' and I cannot recreate
the bug. The extraction works on VM #1 and VM #2, the file is 87M
compressed and 383M uncompressed. The original file that causes the CRC
error is 1531M uncompressed and 344M compressed.
I also started a new VM (#3) in the same EC2 zone, same AMI/Type, same
checksum of /bin/gunzip, and tried expanding the original file
('kernel.h.gz' with the same sha512sum). It works. I was attempting to
exclude the CPU as a factor and though it has the same CPU, the flags
listed are different:
