Is it reasonable to expect that this version of LZ4 can/will appear on any
other platform outside of archeology?  Removing the file manually would be a
trivial way to stabilize but if it's only expected to happen on platforms which
are long since EOL by the time 16 ships then the added complication could be
hard to justify.
