Thanks, Bruno.
The FreeBSD failure looks like it is due to "more" not detecting write
failure when its output is redirected to /dev/full (in the zmore
test).
The Haiku failure is due to gzexe failing due to that system's lack of
hard link support:

+ eval 'env $i  in-6369 < $tmp_in > $tmp_out'
++ env gzexe in-6369
in-6369:        -15.4%
ln: failed to create hard link 'in-6369~' => 'in-6369': Operation not supported
/boot/home/gzip-1.8.41-9d3bb-dirty/build/tests/../gzexe: cannot backup
in-6369 as
in-6369~
+ echo FAIL: gzexe
FAIL: gzexe
+ fail=1

On hppa, the test that runs `gunzip --help > /dev/full` fails
unexpectedly. It should run only on a system with writable "char"
device /dev/full, and it should fail like this:

$ gunzip --help > /dev/full
echo: write error: No space left on device
[Exit 1]

But on your system, it exits with status 2.

The other hppa failures may be similar:

$ grep '^\*' test-suite.hpux-hppa|sort -u
*** gunzip: bad exit status `2' (expected 1),
*** gzexe: bad exit status `2' (expected 1),
*** zcat: bad exit status `2' (expected 1),
*** zcmp: bad exit status `0' (expected 2),
*** zdiff: bad exit status `0' (expected 2),
*** zegrep: bad exit status `0' (expected 2),
*** zfgrep: bad exit status `0' (expected 2),
*** zforce: bad exit status `2' (expected 1),
*** zgrep: bad exit status `0' (expected 2),
*** zless: bad exit status `2' (expected 1),
*** zmore: bad exit status `0' (expected 1),
*** znew: bad exit status `2' (expected 1),
