Actual releases switched from .Z to .gz at 93g, but the archive files switch at tzdata95c and tzcode95d. Obviously someone recompressed the intervening tarballs somewhere along the chain of custody that led to the present archive, and it appears that the failure to (re)compress 94d happened in that process.
Thanks for reporting the problem. I propose that we fix the file formats to match those of the announcements. Although this won't give us the exact files that Arthur released, it will be closer than what we have now. Proposed shell script attached; the idea is to execute this shell script on the archive of rel3eased files at iana.org.
