The -X option to unzip-6.00 does not work.


   On Unix, support restoration of 32-bit
   UID/GID data using the new "ux" IZUNIX3
   extra field introduced with Zip 3.0.

The -X option does not work as advertised.

Problem: Files extracted with unzip-6.00.12fc20 are owned by root:root
even when -X is specified.

Diagnosis: The code for -X depends on preprocessor definitions that
are never defined.

See comment #5 in
'Does "unzip -X" work in Info-ZIP UnZip 6.00?'
