What does error code LZO_E_LOOKBEHIND_OVERRUN mean?

I am attempting to decompress some compressed data, but I'm getting an error code of LZO_E_LOOKBEHIND_OVERRUN. What does this error mean?

I have checked comments in the source code and several results on Google but I can't find what it means.

I am using LZO 1x 999 compression and this decompression function.

    Can't say much more about this than lzo-2.05/doc/LZOAPI.TXT [1] does:

    LZO_E_LOOKBEHIND_OVERRUN
    Your data is corrupted.
