Patch taken from Debian sid.
Description: Support uncompressing and compressing soft links.
Historically, ncompress for Debian has been built using a command line
directly in debian/rules. For 4.2.4.5-1, I simplified by swtching to the
upstream Makefile. However, that caused a regression - the Debian version of
ncompress has always successfully handled soft links, but this stopped
working. To revert to the original behavior, I need to remove -DLSTAT from
the build options, to be consistent with how the code was previously built.
