[issue9835] ZipFile unix external attributes incorrect for entry written with writestr

[R. David Murray]

R. David Murray <rdmurray at bitdance.com> added the comment:

I'm not very familiar with zipfile, but my immediate reaction is, why should it?  It can't know that the file is a unix file, and indeed if the program is running on windows it may not be.

Perhaps instead there's something missing in the API to allow you to set the correct value when using writestr?
