If *that* were still a concern for a compression tool (as opposed to
various vendor `tar' programs), then heck it should not be promoted at
all for wider use.  No, I don't think each package using Automake should
be turned into a regression test suite for lzma.  That's more fear,
uncertainty, and doubt, than I'm willing to handle ATM.  And if your
fears turn out to have a basis after all, then the step to go is to
remove dist-lzma and think about it again in a couple of years.

Cheers,
Ralf
