You might want to look at the libtransform work done in the libarchive
repository, e.g.
http://code.google.com/p/libarchive/source/browse/branches/ferringb-workspace/libtransform/

It started as refactoring of the compression/decompression layer of
libarchive and seems to strongly overlap in terms of functionality.
