The error you are getting would indicate that there is no output on
stdout pipe from unzip.   As you suggest, it looks like unzip from
stdin (using "-") doesn't work.  You might try this as an equivalent
alternative for reading from stdin:

fromdsn -b //DD:IN   |
   unzip -p /dev/fd0  |
   todsn -s ISO8859-1 -t IBM-1047 //DD:OUT
