Got it!

The script places up-to-date .html.gz files in the web infrastructure,
alas we do have older .html there -- and our web server is happy to
serve those over the compressed ones.

In any case, we surely do not want to have _inconsistent_ versions of
the same contents there.

I guess what we should rather do is copying over the .html files from
the temporary directory into the web tree and then do the compressing
in the web tree.  But I assume you guys on the libstdc++ side are a lot
more familiar with this, so it's your call.

There may be other ideas, just what we currently have doesn't seem to 
work.
