I applied the patch, on a Linux system, as follows:
1) Downloaded the latest version from the zip forum (diff_8942.zip) and
extracted zip31-try04.zip into a temporary directory (/tmp, actually).
2) Copied a freshly unzipped zip31b directory into the temp dir under
the name of orig.
3) Ran patch as follows:
> my...@myhost:/tmp$ patch -d orig -p1 <zip31-try04.diff

No prompts and no rejects.
Then, of course, the whole source tree needs to be uploaded to the
mainframe and rebuilt.
Cheers,
