Nick Coghlan added the comment:

How common are such broken zip files? Like Serhiy, I'm concerned about the 
possible negative impact on the interpreter startup time as we try to second 
guess the contents of the zip file manifest.

It seems better to be explicit that we consider such zipfiles broken and they 
need to be regenerated with full manifests (perhaps providing a script in Tools 
that fixes them).
