In previous releases I have recommended that e2compress and
e2decompress not be used, as they contained some bugs.

In this release I have included a test version of e2compress.  Do not
rely on it, but it has passed basic tests.  Decompression does not in
general work for kernels without e2compr (nor with kernels that honour
the NOCOMPR flag for reading, when these come into existence), nor in
general with files with compression errors, nor will it decompress
under a kernel with e2compr prior to 0.3 (though it can be made to
with a one-line change to the e2compress source code).  It should,
however, work with the usual case of an e2compr-0.3 kernel and a file
with no compression errors.

In the src/ directory are two files, `old-e2compress.c' and `e2compress.c'.
The former roughly corresponds to that previously distributed.  It may
or may not have bugs fixed.  The latter (`e2compress.c') contains some
updated code including code to do a better job of decompressing.
