Similar to lb_chroot_hacks, I guess. Though the duplication gets tedious
after a while (I understand why in lb_chroot_hacks that's hard to avoid,
though). In the particular case of zcat, wouldn't it be better to have
ZCAT, or some such, set variously to zcat, bzcat or lzcat, depending on
LB_INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION and use that here instead of a case?
