*** What is the difference between error ad errstr ?
Maybe errstr should be changed to errmsg ? (Did I say that elsewhere ? ;-)
As the file extension is .bz2, maybe the prefix should be bz2_ as well 
(it's an algorithm, not a version right ?)

Comparing Gzip and Bzip2 functions :

bz_close                gz_close
bz_compress             gz_compress
bz_decompress           gz_uncompress   --> Something must be done here.
bz_errno                -
bz_error                -
bz_errstr               -
bz_flush                ?
bz_open         gz_open
bz_read         gz_read
bz_write                gz_write, gz_puts
-                       gz_eof
-                       gz_file
-                       gz_getc
-                       gz_gets
-                       gz_getss
-                       gz_passthru
-                       gz_rewind
-                       gz_seek
-                       gz_tell
-                       gz_readfile
