Thanks, this is helpful. To me, it looks like we need something
similar to 9ca40dcd4, plus something like the last hunk of 02a93e7ef.
The rest of 02a93e7ef and all of 4035cd5d4 seem like they address the
application of lz4 rather than just adding support for it, so I don't
see the need for those elements in this patch. Am I missing something?
