  Description     : parallel, indexing version of xz

This is another parallel xz compressor/decompressor.
Better long description to follow. 

You can look at pxz to get the general idea.  Or imagine multithreaded
xz.

So why another parallel xz in the archive.

- - This one seems about 25% faster compressing in some simple tests I
  ran (compressing a 2.7G file with 6 threads, maximum compression).
  Decompression seems to be a wash between xz, pxz, and pixz on files
  produced by xz. On files produced by pixz, pixz is noticably faster 

- - More importantly it does not seem to suffer from (because of being "indexable")

  http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=686502

  i.e. busybox xz also works on the output of pixz

The lack of releases is a bit annoying; perhaps upstream can be
convinced to make some tags.
