All the build, install, and test scripts run on windows (using plink to build 
things on the other platforms). Writing a script to transfer all the files to 
linux, reset the permissions, run zip, copy the results back, etc., will take 
longer than just writing that trivial utility. That's what programming languages 
are for.
