As others have pointed out, the problem is with the JNI/CNI stuff.
But just to give you a definite answer: we definitely *want* our
java.util.zip to be put into Classpath, with the changes you mention.
Feel free to do that.

Paul had a plan to handle this involving C++ magic. He hasn't had
time to implement this, and neither has anybody else. I'm still
trying to get some time scheduled to fix the problem, as it is
becoming a real barrier to merging.
