Data compressor in the PPM family

 Bicom is a data compressor in the PPM family.  It is freely available and
Open Source.  It's most unique characteristic, is that compression with
bicom is completely bijective -- any file is a possible bicom output that
can be decompressed, and then recompressed back to its original form.  Of
course, any file is also a possible bicom input that can be compressed,
and then decompressed back to its original form.  To support encryption
applications, bicom also includes a passphrase-protection option that
will automatically encrypt after compressing, or decrypt before
decompressing.

Relinquish ports I happen to no longer use.  They seem to be of the latest
versions, and non-broken, so this is a "clean" dump.
