gcloop ucl is used in the ppc cd because plain cloop seems to have not
reproducible issues there
cloop or gcloop zlib is used in x86 cd for the pretty same reason
unreproducible issues with gcloop ucl at module loading time on certain
system

Since gcloop ucl/lzo/zlib and cloop are drop-ins replacements from the
livecd generator point of view, every time the one working best for the
purpose is used.

Currently I'm trying to make a quite generic *cloop supporting module
for 2.6 kernel if someone is willing to help me fixing the bugs that are
present at the current state or are willing to help me porting the
compressors in the kernel in a clean way (currently I have the ucl
compressor more or less working and the generic module almost done but
with issues)
