It should be fairly easy to see which syscall returns oper not
permitted. Do "strace -o zip.log zip -u /c:/...". Then look at
the end of the zip.log file...

While we are discussing VFAT... can someone tell me the right
way to rename a file on a VFAT filesystem from "foo" to "Foo"
or "FoO" ??? It logically returns "file already exists" because
of VFAT's case insensitiveness...
