So the binutils upload will need to be re-built against security and pushed to the -security pocket additionally to the -updates pocket, otherwise all the future potential gzip security updates would revert this fix here. Balint is preparing the rebuild, but I think ubuntu-security should be notified.

In the meantime, I have released gzip as is as it does not have any runtime dependency on the new binutils. It did not age fully but I am conditionally accepting it earlier.
