[issue4621] zipfile returns string but expects binary

I was wondering what has prevented Eddies patch from being included into python. Has nobody volunteered to verify that it works? I would be willing to do that, though I have never compiled python on any platform before.

It just seems a bit silly to me that python cannot work with zip files with unicode file names... I just now had to do 'os.system("unzip.exe ...")' because zipfile did not work for me...
