Summary: zipfile module and 2G boundary

Initial Comment:
The zipfile module currently can not handle archives that have file 
headers that begin past the 2**31 byte boundary.  This is really bug 
#679953 all over again -- that fix didn't solve all of the problem.

Patch to CVS HEAD attached, backport candidate to 2.4.2 and 
2.3.6.
