This would look good too.

To be accurate, zipfile will create ZIP files that use the ZIP64 extensions 
when:

* It contains more than 65535 files.

* It is larger than 2 GiB. More accurate, when either the offset or the size of 
the central directory is larger than 2 GiB, so in theory it is possible to 
exceed the total size of 2 GiB without using ZIP64.

* The original size of any file is larger than 2 GiB.

I'm not sure we should describe the behavior in all details.
