Hmm. I've switched almost entirely to LZMA since it was introduced and it
works for me on all my platforms. I haven't tested kernels rigorously since
your patches to the decompressor, so maybe there's a regression in there
somewhere.
Can you try LZMA with your various patches over the last four months
