zip64 compatibility problems

[Xueming Shen]

Hi Martin, sorry for the late response, was busy on other stuff these 
days. I'm OK
with the idea of introducing a system property to turn off zip64 
support, but NOT
by default. You can make it default in your internal build. You do the 
code, I do
the internal process/paper work (need go CCC for it). Let's do it for 8 
first.
