Hi Hilton,
I agree with Ludo' and also wonder if a generic
‘url-fetch/compressed-file’ wouldn't be better. There are closure
arguments to be made for this xz-only approach. I don't know if they're
convincing. Cluebats welcome.
(I was going to bring up ‘url-fetch/tarbomb’ as an example, but it
doesn't actually handle anything besides gzip! Madness.)

Why set this kluge…
+ (invoke (string-append #+xz "/bin/unxz")
+ #$file-name)
…when we have full control over xz's arguments?
Kind regards,
T G-R
