You probably want to check for the presence of lz4c on the system and
bail with an informative message if absent.
Yep, x86_64-randconfig

Sure, it had to be 2 months and to hit upstream for there still to be no

Anyone reading this and willing to try his skills with an
introductory-level patch, feel free to address this. I'll help testing

Thanks.
