Still not quite right -- the old version was wrong because it had
"files that is" instead of "files that are".  The new version has a
comma splice, though -- the comma in "32-bit integer, therefore"
should be replaced with either a semicolon or a full stop.

I would probably also put in two "the"s in the text following this
change -- "the -l option" and "the gzip utility".
