Thanks. This thread helped me. I overwrote my systemui and
needed it back. Is able to use this method to extract it fromthe
Google factory image for my galaxy nexus. You do it once and it's
pretty straight forward.

I need to pack files back into a system.img file and it can't be
an update.zip file. I need it for emulation purposes.
