Subject: XZ support for Archive-Extract
Enclosed is a patch to add support for both xz and tar.xz files to Archive-Extract. Also, modified the lzma logic to favour IO::Uncompress::Unlzma in preference to Compress::unLzma. UNlike the C::unLzma module, the IO::* module doesn't need to read the complete file into memory to carry out the decompression. Paul

Hi, Thanks for the patches, Paul. I did apply them and they were shipped as version 0.40 to CPAN. I'm updating the Archive-Extract in blead this evening to match. Cheers.
