I played a bit with the git source code and found out, that

diff --git a/archive-zip.c b/archive-zip.c
index f5af81f..e0ccb4f 100644

works with 7-zip, however, not with Windows 7 build-in zip.

If I create a zip file with 7-zip which contains umlauts and other
unicode chars like (國立1-кккк.txt) the Windows 7 build-in zip displays
them correctly, too.
