We could either patch the zipios included with Enigma (it already
contains an Enigma-specific OS X patch IIRC)...

...or, since we use only a small amount of functionality from zipios
anyway, we could simply try to move the relevant code  to ecl or file.cc
directly.  Zipios has not been updated in the last 2 years, so we will
have to fix all bugs that we happen upon ourselves anyway.

Simply fixing zipios seems like the easiest route for now, but I
wouldn't mind getting rid of this dependency altogether in the long
term.
