Description:
The package 'mysql-5.0.6-beta-win-src.zip' contains the sub tree '../mysql-test/var' that contains only temporarily data from the test suite. The dir /var is not needed in the distributuion, it iscreated by the test script.
Please remove /var prior packaging the source files. This reduces the .zip by ~2371 files / 13.8 MB. 

How to repeat:
just have a look into the .zip
