Antoine,
I had a similar problem with zip version 2.32, but this is fixed in
version 3.0 (or on 64-bit architectures). Would you be able to give it a
try with the newer version (which can be obtained from info-zip.org)?
Unfortunately, my upload bandwidth will not allow me to upload such a
big file.
Thanks,
Alon
