the regression tests worked yesterday and they do test lossless with the 5/3 
wavelet
the 9/7 wavelet is with the scaling merged not bijective with fixed point 
numbers, its bijective if rational or real numbers are used, but as the 5/3 
wavelet is superior for lossless (at least it was in my tests) thats really 
irrelevant
but then again, dont hesitate to look at the lifting steps for the 9/7 
wavelet, maybe you can come up with a better solution so that this 
dissadvantage can be avoided
