Try:
zstyle ':completion:*' accept-exact-dirs true
The trade off is in path completion:
ls /usr/l/bin/<TAB>
will usually allow "l" to complete to "local". With the setting above,
it won't do that if the directory "l" already exists, it'll just blindly
accept it. I happen to prefer it that way anyway.
