error msg 'no such option: localpatterns' on tab completion

My ISP upgraded from zsh-5.0.0 to zsh-5.0.5, suddenly I get this error when
I tab-complete a file name (before hitting <RETURN>):

(eval):setopt:3: no such option: localpatterns
(eval):5: bad option: -p

I don't have a "localpatterns" option set, but I do see this among
everything else when I type 'set' at the prompt:

---------------------------------
_comp_setup='local -A _comp_caller_options;
             _comp_caller_options=(${(kv)options[@]});
             setopt localoptions localtraps localpatterns
${_comp_options[@]};
             local IFS=$'' \t\r\n\0''
             enable -p \| \~ \( \? \* \[ \< \^ \#
             exec </dev/null;
             trap - ZERR
             local -a reply
             local REPLY'
---------------------------------

But I don't know where that's set (I looked in .zcompdump) or how to change
it.

I'm using zsh-5.0.5 at home and on another ISP (& nearly identical config
files in all 3 places) with no problems.

How can I apply a fix to remove the error message?

It would appear that the zsh 5.0.0 binary is still running but the
compsys library has been updated to the 5.0.5 file set.

What do you get from e.g. "print $ZSH_PATCHLEVEL" ?

You'll need to find out how/why you're still running the old binary.
