need to check here if we are at TEXT_BASE (I mean if the code run where we are
supposed to uncompress

otherwise on at91 it will not work as the bootstrap put use at TEXT_BASE

so we have need to link at an other address

but the decompressor need work anyway by copying itself with the data before
of after the TEXT_BASE
and we should take the uncompress size about 4 times the compressed one.
There is nearly no change to compress more than 75%


otherwise Tested by: Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD <plagnioj@jcrosoft.com>

J.
