Devourer Station <accelerator0...@gmail.com> added the comment:

Null bytes appear in abnormal zip files. (I haven't seen any multibyte encoding 
that represents a character with null bytes)

But non-utf8 encodings are common in normal zip files, as windows uses 
different encodings for different language settings. (On the other hand, Linux 
suggests everyone use UTF8 regardless of their language settings.)

It's a pity that nowadays few software supports specifying encoding when 
extracting archives.
(We have unzip-iconv patch on Linux, even if the patch is never accepted by 
unzip)

Changing the language and rebooting my OS makes no sense, and I don't know why.
