Could we please not jump to conclusions before checking the facts?
Thanks. What happens here is the setuptools are using a shell wrapper
around the zip archive and *that* is not supported by libarchive.
I do not consider it a bug to not look in random source files for the
ZIP signature. It *does* handle most self-extracting files with the MZ
signature.
