snapshot.debian.org is partially down at the moment so I had to fetch
library.zip from a different source.
Big surprise: This looks a lot like an ELF executable:
$ md5sum library.zip
515f777ed2eff186fb7f63ff489979d0 library.zip
$ file library.zip
library.zip: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically
linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.8, stripped
$ hd library.zip

Also the actual code looks sane. So I'm guessing this is a
self-extracting executable. Never saw that in Linux before. Will have
to check, and the wishlist bug against file was to identfy that kind
of file.
