The license of lzo doesn't allow us to include it in PostgreSQL
without relicensing PostgreSQL as GPL.
I'm not sure of what you imply by "a license that could work".
Note that it doesn't change the interest of your approach. It's just
that I'm not sure we can find a performance-acceptable BSD licensed
compression library (it was discussed a lot of times here).
