It is a bug somewhere. See this big report: https://quality.livecode.com/show_bug.cgi?id=21447
I actually think it is related. The zip should be created as a Unix variant and not Fat and file attributes should be stored. One thing that could be tried is to manually set the executable bit when creating the archive. I was able to store a link in a zip using this method, but there is no way to read the file attributes in LC.
