I've uploaded a revised patch (zip-cvs.diff). This is against 
current Python CVS. It's basically just the existing import.c 
patch, plus the rest of the dashc-2 patch. Everything applied 
OK (with fuzz and offsets, but otherwise OK).

The resulting code builds, but when I try importing from a zip 
file, I get a crash. However, this happens when I use the zlib 
module directly, so appears to be because I haven't built zlib 
correctly :-(

I will investigate further, but thought I'd upload the new patch 
in case anyone else wants to take a look.
