Thank you very much Paul and Oscar. I have just updated the lzip page 
adding a link to the ezwinports port. I have also mentioned the ports in 
the donwload section, including 32 and 64 bit ports of plzip, the 
parallel version of lzip.

This page says that Bash on Ubuntu on Windows runs the Ubuntu binaries 
provided by Canonical, so lzip should work as it has been packaged in 
Ubuntu since 2009:
