Well, did you read:
-- optionally, texdoc can support compressed documentation, but this is
-- system-dependant (commands for unzipping, temporary files, etc).
-- Since TeX Live doesn't ship compressed doc, downstream distributors who
-- want to ship zipped should change support_zipped to true *and* make sure
-- everything works for them (look for support_zipped in the code).
-- If you use this feature, please let us know: if nobody uses it,
-- we'll drop it at some point.
And I looked now in the code, tried to fix the broken compression support. But
it's quite hopeless (more than 1/2 hour work). I think they have extended code
more and more without touching the supported_zipped parts. For example, the
how_to_view builds a viewer_replacement command that contains code that must be
executed by a shell. However, try_viewing the quotes the whole command so that
the shell cannot execute the code and the viewer gets the whole "filename ; rm
filename ; " code.
