I did get hold of Richard Purdie and Nitin Gupta, who were the guys in the know. We discovered that LZO is expecting decomp_size to be initialised to the amount of available space when the decompression code is called, so there was a bug in my testing code. Nitin was talking about sending a patch to the documentation to make this requirement clearer. That said, the actual code that TuxOnIce uses does already initialise the variable to PAGE_SIZE, so it seems that I might just have to run with the checking code enabled (with this fix) for a while, until the issue is found.
