Working dir origins of .zip files

Hey guys,

Could I ask that if you issue an update .zip file, please create
it from the same working directory as the original .zip (right now,
ASSP_1.2.5-Install.zip has ASSP/assp.pl but ASSP_1.2.5_Rev.2-Update.zip
has ./assp.pl).  Using a consistent origin really makes life a lot
easier for those of us using automatic porting frameworks such as
that on FreeBSD.

Better yet, don't issue update .zips containing partial sets of
files.  Just issue a whole new, complete ASSP_1.2.5.2-Install.zip.

Thanks,
        -jr
