The build system supports unzipping (pre-built) zip files onto the 
image/into a package. In that case attributes are preserved even on 
non-Haiku build hosts. The feature still seems to be used for the 
default WebPositive bookmarks [1, 2]. Don't know, if attribute 
preservation is relevant in this case.

As WebPositive isn't built for the bootstrap build, Jérôme may very well 
be right.
