Looks like a in issue in libzip, not in the extension.

@AnrDaemon, how do you use the PECL builds of the zip extension? I only recently learned, that these cannot be loaded into the official Windows builds, because the zip extension is already statically built into these. This changes as of PHP 8.2.0, so I'm not sure it even makes sense to try to fix this issue (besides that the PECL builds for Windows need changes anyway).

That's from PECL build logs.

Sad to hear that we lost the workhorse.
