All I can say is that I looked at the report after running Eclair and found no
trace of earlycpio.c in the violations. It's not clean, but I don't think it
is as of now.
As to why it was excluded in the first place, your guess is as good as mine.
Maybe all decompressors were excluded regardless of them being clean or not
(e.g: zstd is also excluded).

Alejandro
