Well both stage1&  stage2 now expect XZ compressed modules.
What's the issue on ARM? The kernel decompressor?

yes.

There are patches suggested/queued for 3.4 to get full XZ support for arm so maybe we can backport them for 3.3 depending on how intrusive they are...

Thinking some more about the issue, adding something like .[g,x]z to
to the module detection wouldn't be much coding at all and would cover
both compressions, wdyt ?
