You can construct a ZipInputStream on a non ZIP
file (e.g. a Unix executable). The getNextEntry()
does not throw an IOException - it just returns
null. Somewhere along the way surely a
ZipException should be thrown! You do get an
exception eventually if you use a corrupted
ZIP file.

I tried using ZipFile instead which throws an IO
exception alright but fails to close the file
(bug number 4102690 - how about getting around
to the one line fix that requires!!!).

I believe these problems still exists in JDK 1.2 beta 2
so the new JarVerifier class would also be impacted.
