LZMA Utils and XZ Utils were both developed by Lasse Collin in collaboration with Igor Pavlov. Lasse Collin is the maintainer of both XZ Utils and LZMA Utils, and he only released that code into the public domain on April 13, 2009 (i.e., recently). Igor Pavlov's code in the LZMA SDK was released into the public domain in December, 2008. See xz-utils/AUTHORS, <http://www.7-zip.org/sdk.html>, and XZ Utils git commit 02ddf09b ("Put the interesting parts of XZ Utils into the public domain.", 2009-04-13).
