And this is expected, since the original specification of ZIP did NOT  
specify character set information for the pathnames.

More recent ZIP specifications define a Unicode content field, but  
this isn't perfect either since the decompressor has to support  
reading this content field.

Regardless... this would need to be implemented in the ZIP creation  
code.  But it is an enhancement, not a bug.
