Re: [Jazzlib-developers] 128 extra bytes at beginning or within zipfile

Perhaps you could find out what program was used to create the zip
files, and whether there is any documented evidence of it behaving
strangely?

Have you had a look at the jazzlib source to see where it is throwing
this exception and what check was performed?

I don't have time to look into it right now, you can submit the file so
long as an attachment to a bug.
