The ZIP "standard" defines several compression methods for files
inside the archive and Ant's ZIP classes (like the java.util.zip
classes) only support two of them (store uncompressed and deflate
which uses the same algorithm as gzip).  The archive you are trying to
extract has been created using a different algorithm, maybe it is
encrypted.

Sorry I can't do more than explain why you see the exception, there is
no Ant internal solution to it.
