Summary:                    rpm and rpm2cpio can't handle bzip2 compressed
payload
Description: 
Please add trunk/busybox/patches/rpm2cpio_bzip2.patch to the standard
busybox code.  There _are_ RPMs with bzip2 compressed cpio inside.  PLD
and SUSE Linux use a bzip2 compressed payload.

If required I'll provide and test the appropriate patch for rpm too.

The updated diff enhances the patch originally made by Adam Slattery
<slattery at students.missouri.edu> and sent to the busybox mailing list.

This version ensures to do the bzip2 compress work inside an 'else if'
statement. Else we run in trouble as soon as our RPM has gziped payload.
