For the heck of it, on WinXP I just downloaded Zope-2.8.0-a2.tgz from

    http://www.zope.org/Products/Zope/2.8.0a2

then unpacked it using WinZip 9.0 SR-1.  No problems:  build_ext -i
worked fine, and:

C:\Zope-2.8.0-a2\lib\python\Products\PluginIndexes\TextIndex\Splitter\ISO_8859_1_Splitter\src>dir
 Volume in drive C has no label.
 Volume Serial Number is 5C0F-48E6
