I have found an example (using jar) in the archives of zipping a savf.
What I can't find is a way of unzipping one that was created with
(probably) winzip.

Do you know how it was compressed?

Winzip includes a compression mechanism that's not compatible with other zip utilities "Maximum (enhanced deflate)".

Although when I try to use jar to unzip a file compressed with enhanced deflate, I get a "java.lang.InternalError: invalid compression method" error (on V5R4).

Also, how did you transfer the zip to the IFS? FTP? In binary mode?
