And another set of updates!

Made most large-ish packages smaller & faster to install by switching from bzip2 to xz. (The 50KB cost of bundling xzdec is vastly offset by the size & speed gains [for instance, python decompresses twice as fast as before -_-"]).

(On a sidenote, that puts USBNet & Python right back under MR's 20MB limit, which means I can finally push a freaking update of the release versions. Soon(TM).).

EDIT: Done! Hopefully I haven't broken anything this time ;p.
