i didnt do that because the func is always called and i was afraid
that it'd prevent normal execution.  the runtime code should already
fail when lzo is requested because the compression routines are looked
up on the fly and when the requested compressor isnt found, it fails
at that time.  (at least that's my understanding of things)
