Info-ZIP zip and unzip are two different programs, each with their
own version numbers.

Ah! l1 is a symlink to a. The target of a symlink is stored as file
content in a ZIP archive and marked with a special flag. An unzipper
that doesn't understand this flag would create a file containing the
link target's name instead of a symlink pointing to the target.
The unzip on my system says:
$ unzip -v
UnZip 5.52 of 28 February 2005, by Ubuntu. Original by Info-ZIP.
Latest sources and executables are at ftp://ftp.info-zip.org/pub/infozip/ ;
see ftp://ftp.info-zip.org/pub/infozip/UnZip.html for other sites.
Compiled with gcc 4.1.2 (Ubuntu 4.1.2-0ubuntu4) for Unix (Linux ELF) on Mar 31 2007.
UnZip special compilation options:
ACORN_FTYPE_NFS
COPYRIGHT_CLEAN (PKZIP 0.9x unreducing method not supported)
SET_DIR_ATTRIB
TIMESTAMP
USE_EF_UT_TIME
USE_UNSHRINK (PKZIP/Zip 1.x unshrinking method supported)
USE_DEFLATE64 (PKZIP 4.x Deflate64(tm) supported)
VMS_TEXT_CONV
WILD_STOP_AT_DIR
[decryption, version 2.9 of 05 May 2000]
I suspect you need SET_DIR_ATTRIB in order to extract symlinks.
René
