I do. I have about 8 different versions of LHARC they do not all use the same
letter for the same options. Some do not unpack lhz files with path names, some
do but not correctly. Some unpack in the current directory some unpack in de 
root or lzh directory. Some understand UNIX style pathnames some don't

So the problem seems to be real to me!

May in a few days I will send a full list of incompatiblitys if I have time
to test all my version properly.
