The problem is Info-zip on DOS/Windows, not on Unix.  For some reason, 
Zip ignores the execute bit.  It probably assumes that since DOS/Windows 
don't have this bit stored in their filesystems, it isn't worth worrying 
about.  (Personally, I consider this to be a bug.)  When you unzip the 
files on Unix, the shell scripts lose their exec bit.
