IKVM cannot open jars that include additional zip header information.

Basically some programs will include some exe information in the jar header, that the jvm ignores but windows can use to run a script (ex: bin/java/java -jar some.exe). The old minecraft launcher does this.
Noticed this in the original and its present in this fork.
This is a problem with SharpZipLib, the zip library IKVM used to read the jar file. Talk to the SharpZipLib devs, not me.
