I think you meant --unzip no

In either case, I didn't realize the two were separate, thought that --unzip
just meant use my scanner's unzip or not.  Now that I looked at the code a
little more closely, I see that it is to use its own unzip instead.  That's
what I get for being lazy!  Problem solved, thank you.

./configure --unzip yes

Then make sure you have an av scanner that can catch viruses inside zip
files without having to unpack them.
