Yes. Please see the current situation as a temporary one and a way to quickly revert to the old situation if something goes wrong. So far I have no feedback from platforms which I cannot support myself (to be precise, only about an error code not defined on FreeBSD). There is a more important decision to make : who maintains the compression code and how is it distributed. Currently I have just made available a tarball with a crude makefile and binaries for a few platforms, but this can only be temporary. I do not consider myself able to provide significant support in the compression code. Currently my tests only consist in reading a few Windows DLLs, checking their internal checksums, and making sure they are seen as files (not symlinks). I have made no change to your code and the tests are successful on five CPUs models and three operating systems. So, - either you distribute it, and I make references to where it is available, - or I create a new directory and add a new configure option in the ntfs-3g tree so that it is distributed as an option to ntfs-3g, - or maybe there could be some intermediate way. What is your view about it ?
