PDE has support for n - 2 but has never guaranteed forward compatibility.
You can always try to run the p2.repo2runnable task to make the repo in a format against which you can run.

Some more stupid questions.....:-)

Ok so that .zip as I learned looks that way because it is "p2-ized". No idea how to tell the PDE Build to use it, but that explains it at least.

In 3.5M5, PDE Build added support to use p2 repos as a target:

See the 'repoBaseLocation' and 'transformedRepoLocation' properties.
