I'm sure you know this, but for future readers don't enter the PaxHeader directories. Just run perl Makefile.PL from within the extracted Archive-Zip-1.48, or install via cpan/cpanm.

I think the root cause of this is that certain distros (e.g. opensuse) ship tar defaulting to this format, rather than the gnu format (--format=gnu). See also rt://105547.

Update: hang on, ignore the text I struk out. Let me dig deeper.

Update 2:Delete all the PaxHeader directories, perl Makefile.PL, dmake, dmake test, finally dmake install and all is well. RT ticket updated.

Update 3:For reference, the manual install fails, a cpan install works on Windows. I uninstalled my manual build then cpan Archive::Zip, worked without error.
