I just realized that there is something I should have mentioned earlier.
As of Java 7, its ZipOutputStream constructor now has the option that you can
specify what character encoding is used to for stuff like path names. See
dhams comment here:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/9974779/using-unicode-characters-for-file-names-inside-a-zip-archive
I am explicitly using "UTF-8" for the character encoding (tho I did not have to
be explicit: UTF-8 is the default).
Could it be that cygwin unzip needs a different character encoding?
That would surprise me, since I thought that the Unix world is coalescing
around UTF-8 as the default character encoding.
