   - cater to win32 - use File::Spec catfile and rel2abs all over the place
   
2.06 Fri Apr 29 2005
   - build for bzip2.exe fine tuning for win32 nmake

2.07 Sun May 1 2005
   - bzlib-src/Makefile.PL had a stupid mistake in it that shows up for
     win32 nmake.  I can't test that stuff out.  Plus, got some new
     info from Sisyphus, so tossed my scribble and put in something
     known to work.

   - implemented Compress::Bzip2 1.03 compatibility layer to encompass
     the post-1.00 development thread taken by Marco Carnut and David
     Robins.  Made an effort to include the three .t test files asis.

   - Why?  Cause I found that PerlIO::via::Bzip2, by Arjen Laarhoven,
     is built on the streaming interface of 1.03.  From looking over
     it, I gather it redirects a 1.03 compression/decompression stream
     to/from a file.  It doesn't do the extra bit of fiddling with the
     trailers to make the resultant file usable by the bzip2 commands.
     Additionally, the 1.03 decompress stream doesn't handle the pause
     when an embedded EOF marker is found, which is an issue for files
     larger than the buffer size (900k by default).
     
     So, I figured it would be easy to provide a compatibility layer
     for packages that use 1.03.  By using my stuff, the headers and
     trailers would be automatically taken care of, as would the EOF
     marker.  Something like PerlIO::via::Bzip2 would then
     interoperate with bzip2 commands.  Sure, I think bzread and bzwrite
     are better choices for file IO, but this is perl, right?  There has
     to be at least 10 ways to do the same thing.
