While it does handle resource forks, I don't trust it. Last time I used Panther's Finder to zip up some Quark XPress jobs, the printer I sent them to (who are still using Mac OS 9) said the folder unzipped very strangely and none of the fonts worked. Turns out that because OS X works with resource forks differently, it zipped them up inside a folder called "._MACOSX" or something along those lines. OS 9 didn't have a clue what to make of it 'til I stuffed them up with DropStuff.
