Serhiy, merely reverting the change would not fix the originally reported 
problem in the documentation. Based on your additional information, and to 
prevent the need to describe the ZIP64 extensions in more than one place, I 
suggest two changes:

(1) Change the second paragraph in the zipfile module documentation from:

"It can handle ZIP files that use the ZIP64 extensions (that is ZIP files that 
are more than 4 GiB in size)."

to:

"It can handle ZIP files that use the ZIP64 extensions."

(2) In the description of the zipfile.ZipFile class, change:

"If allowZip64 is True (the default) zipfile will create ZIP files that use the 
ZIP64 extensions when the zipfile is larger than 4 GiB."

to:

"If allowZip64 is True (the default) zipfile will create ZIP files that use the 
ZIP64 extensions when the zipfile is larger than 2 GiB or contains more than 
65535 files."
