Last change on this file since 98879 was 98094, checked in by vboxsync, 23 months ago

IPRT/zip + libs/liblzf: Older versions of system-provided liblzf do not provide explicit C-callers, so define that within zip.cpp. This should fix compilation on older distros like Debian Buster++. Restored original header from the vendor branch [restored original header].

58 * more than in_len (but less than 104% of the original size), so it
