According to
http://freshmeat.net/projects/unzip/
unzip is licensed under the BSD license.

Here's the license
ftp://ftp.info-zip.org/pub/infozip/license.html

«    1.  Redistributions of source code must retain the above copyright 
notice, definition, disclaimer, and this list of conditions.
   2. Redistributions in binary form (compiled executables) must 
reproduce the above copyright notice, definition, disclaimer, »

Guess that's the original BSD, and not the modified one, GPL-compatible.

By the way, it shouldnt be so hard to provide both tar.gz and zip.
