The attach patch changes Expander's behavior to decompress *.gz to stdout, which is piped into another instance of gunzip that reads stdin. This will preserve the original file. As an additional note, luroh has reported "looks like freebsd's gzip has had the -k option added ​http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=113397"
