I've noticed that the --manual compression feature in recent versions of
curl isn't being used by most binary curl distributions I've seen. This
seems to be due to the default uncompressed hugehelp.c file shipped in the
tarball causing the compression to not take place by default.

Attached is a patch (against 7.10.8) that causes make to attempt to compress
the manual at least once and only if that fails to use the uncompressed
version.
