Summary: cannot read zip file entry (r4932)

Initial Comment:
With reference to the bug entry with ID 2618570, I read that the workaround mentioned in the FAQ was reverted in revision 4675, and then reintroduced in revision 4761. However, using JDK 1.6.0 update 14 with revision 4932 (the 20090505 beta version) on MS Windows XP SP3, I faced the same problem when attempting to compile:
Error: error: error reading D:\path\drjava-beta-20090505-r4932.exe; cannot read zip file entry

Perhaps this problem should be noted on the download page so users with JDK 1.6.0_04+ can immediately choose the jar file instead of placing their bets with the exe file.
