Thank you for the quick fix. I could verify that the issue is fixed in
python 2.6 when I use WinZip to open an archive with more than 2^16
files created with attached script (bug.py). However the windows native
compress utility does not seem to be able to recognize the files that
have more than 2^16 files (the error says that the archive is not
valid). However, if I try to create an archive using WinZip or 7zip with
exactly the same files, windows compress utility is able to open the
archive. The same thing would apply if I create the archive using zlib
C# library.
