.zshenv is the file to use.  If it's not being sourced on some
occasions, something somewhere is changing the configuration.  The only
ways of doing this I can think of are for something in /etc/zshenv to
stop it by setting the option NO_RCS, or for the environment variable
ZDOTDIR to point to a different directory, or for some emulation mode
such as ksh that doesn't use it to be in effect.
