Hmm. But when expanding, you'd end up with double (well 1 + 5/8) the
inflation of address space, since you get to keep the compressed image
around (of course, if it is cleverly done, the MM would know that the
compressed part is read-only and thus discardable from physical memory).

Seems you'll have to do the png decoding yourself :-(
