Nope, darn it, checked my notes and that wasn't it. I thought zip had an RFC,
it's just zlib, deflate, and gzip, and that's not the number of any of them.

I still think sticking with a lightly modified cpio makes the most sense,
just... in band signalling that _doesn't_ solve the y2038 problem, the file size
limit, or address sparse files seems kinda silly.
