Hey Mike, Where did you find the ZIP Code boundaries? They are licensed data from the USPS and would not have a compatible license for OSM. Or are you refering to ZCTAs (ZIP Code Tabulation Areas)? ZCTAs are not the same thing as ZIP codes http://www.census.gov/geo/ZCTA/zcta.html. They are usually the same but not always, this is because the USPS doesn't even give their ZIP Code database to the U.S. Census.
According to this Wikipedia article http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ZIP_Code_Tabulation_Area some of them represent data that doesn't exist in the USPS database anymore. Not trying to rain on your parade, just want people to be aware that it is not the same thing.
