while it won't grok all cases (removed files etc.), why don't you start with
providing simple diffs. At least most Unix folks would be glad about them:

  tar xvpzf Zope-2.1.3-src.tar.gz
  tar xvpzf Zope-2.1.4-src.tar.gz
  diff -urN Zope-2.1.3-src Zope-2.1.4-src >Zope-2.1.4.diff

  wc -l Zope-2.1.4.diff
       82 Zope-2.1.4.diff

I.e. the patch is only 82 lines long or 3kb. Furthermore you can easily spot
the changes.

I guess this won't help the win32 people, but it's better than having
nothing IMHO.
