Upx uses lzma465 not as a library but as a source schema.  If compiled
outside of upx, then lzma465 is not useful to upx.  Upx has C++ definitions
and #defines that re-interpret the lzma465 source, including changing
interfaces and class layout, in order to be usable by upx.  The re-
interpretation includes the format of the output compressed data, as well
as enforcing constraints during compression which facilitate decompression
in the "no-libraries" runtime environment of life immediately after execve().
