when any of the encoding assumptions made by UnZip become incorrect.

(sorry for that)

Since this tool will be also used in the planned "Data migration from a system that uses a different character set" section, adding a BLFS page sounds reasoonable. But, of course, this can wait a bit.

As for (3), I forgot to insert the master bugzilla link: https://bugzilla.altlinux.ru/show_bug.cgi?id=4871

The patch is named "unzip-5.50-alt-iconv-v1.1.patch" there.
