Re: [Bug] ZipFile.entries() returns null for bad zip-file

Not knowing if this bug has been fixed, or is a bug at all - maybe
 it's a feature born from poor method specification. Nevertheless,
invoking "ZipFile.entries()" on a ZipFile-instance representing a
corrupt zip-file (any file not being a valid zip-file), returns
null, whereas I would expect an empty enumeration instead...

This is with my ancient 3.4.5 libgcj, however searching bugzilla didn't reveal an existing report for this (could be a result from merging the bug-database between Classpath and GCJ?!)

libgcj has had *many* bug fixes since 3.4, I would suggest running against the current svn trunk (or 4.2 when it branches) to see if
this has been fixed.

Sure - but I've never had the "time" to redo my crosscompiler to a newer version. But I can of course easily test it with JavaCompiler...
