Thanks for the pointers Chris.
Now I also see there is a MinGW-supported zip command in MSYS extensions. In developer context this may be a more obvious route, I'll try it.

on Windows it isn't trivial to make a deken package via makefile target because MinGW doesn't have a zip utility. I don't know yet how to make it convenient and user friendly on this platform.
IOhannes has a solution for this in the form of a small Windows script that uses the OS' native ability to unzip:

I'm guessing there is a way to do the reverse and zip up a directory too using VBscript.
Ah yes:
