Yes, I agree. Please note, the patch I have submitted is **not** the patch
I will submit to the InfoZip maintainers. The patch I send is for information
of the djgpp workers and that is the one I will use to replace the unzip32.exe
at SimTel.NET. That was the reason why I wrote I would send a **similar** but
not the same patch to InfoZip maintainers. Of course, the above change is 100%
DJGPP specific and will **not** be submitted to the maintainers. Netherless,
thanks for the advise.

Regards,
Guerrero, Juan Manuel
