Yeah, but we already have all the code for dealing with file creation in
unarchive.c so I thought I'd re-use it.

Dunno really, because unlike normal Unix archives (cpio, tar) in zip
files
all the file header data is stored uncompressed, it's only the files
themselves that are compressed, thats why I needed to modify unarchive.c
to
call inflate.
