+// The uncompressed data in the test files are short US-ASCII strings.
+// The tests check if the decompressed output is what it is expected to be.
+// Storing the strings here as text would break the tests on EBCDIC systems
+// and storing the strings as an array of hex values is inconvenient, so
+// store the CRC32 values of the expected data instead.
