Subject: RE: Custom Windows build 1.8.0.9 - What happened to zip2john?

So seeing how this problem was just discovered,  I'd like to hear that
someone has either worked on the code to fix it, or they believe it is no
longer a problem with the code.

Then I'll compile a new bleeding for Windows, test this to confirm or deny
the problem's current status.  Once the new version is confirmed fixed, I'll
put on the custom build site.

Hey Robert,

I can confirm what you've found, the earlier build did have the proper
executables. I hope I can test a build from you soon if you won't mind!
