We've been wrestling with this one for a while.  The trouble seems to be
that Terminal sends extra WINCH (window size change) signals to the shell,
which causes it to reprint the prompt.

Zsh doesn't attempt to perform a cursor-up before printing the prompt, as
for command line editing purposes it only keeps track of the appearance of
the final line.
