    Stop using 'zip -k' to construct the Windows source archive. · febb1801

    It was intended to ensure that people still working with DOS filename
    restrictions (or things approximating that, e.g. VFAT) wouldn't have
    trouble. Those days are surely long gone, and now zip -k is causing
    its own trouble with the new VS2010/VS2012 project files, which
    include pairs of filenames that become the same under the zip -k
    transformation and hence break the source archive build.
