I have written a patch that adds full lzip/lunzip support to busybox,
including seamless lz decompression (of tar.lz files, etc), but not
including tar.lz archive creation.
The resulting busybox lzip applet and the real lzip produce bit-for-bit
identical *compressed* files.
I have also written a description of the changes and a listing of the
size increases to busybox object files.

The patch has to be applied to the latest busybox snapshot like this:
cd busybox
patch -p1 < <path>/busybox_lzip-6.patch
Please, test it and report any bugs you find.
Best regards,
Antonio Diaz, lzip author and maintainer.
