Several more detailed answers when my wife isn't waiting on me -
Why would you even write a 0-length file into the archive? Seems an odd thing to do.
I'll get back to the rest of it later.

Oh ... just noticed:
It seems we have no right to assume that the 0-length
Configurations2/accelerator/current.xml is an XML file. Note that it has no
recognizable media-type (and that is another validator-catchable problem,
though):
<manifest:file-entry
manifest:media-type=""
manifest:full-path="Configurations2/accelerator/current.xml"/>

Good point. No, a 0-length file is not a valid XML document. It is not
even well-formed. The syntax rule for document requires that there be a
root element. (See [XML1.0] section 2.1 and the rule for element in section
3.)
So it seems appropriate that canonicalization will fail and treating the
file as a 0-length raw binary is an useful fall-back in a signature
application, since we don't want the signing to fail over such a thing.
On the other hand, this looks like something an ODF validator should catch.

The ...current.xml is indeed signed, using the default transformation
because
another transformation will throw an exception (Java 6)
(Is a 0-length xml file valid XML by the way ?)
