Actually, the ZIP has the text files saved as "text mode". It's just that the 
unzip tool on Unix for whatever reason decides to extract those as CRLF -- I 
guess it's a legacy from days when PKZIP.EXE set the text attribute and people 
needed those CRLF files unchanged.

You can tell unzip to convert to Unix line-endings by giving it the -a flag.
