Requires: util/arc/lzx121r1.lha

LZX1.21r (Aminet util/arc/lzx121r1.lha) has a Y2K-Bug: Files created after
Jan 1st, 2000, are packed with the wrong creation year (2028 for files
created in 2000). This makes LZX unusable for e.g. source archiving
(Think about "make" and file creation dates).

Since it seems that Jonathan Forbes doesn't continue LZX development,
I decided to search the bug and fix it with a patch.

The archive contains the freely distributable spatch utility, three
patchfiles for the different versions of LZX, and a ReadMe describing
the patch procedure.
