Here's my prompt line:

    # THE PROMPT:
    #         yellow:tty       red:host         green:user blue:path
    PS1=$'\n%{\e[0;33;1m%}%l %{\e[0;31;1m%}%m %{\e[0;32;1m%}%n
    %{\e[0;34;1m%}%d $ %{\e[0m%}'


Producing this:

     pts/7 HP-y5--5-Debian1 root /aMisc/zsh-5.0.7/Src $


Default prompt is:

     HP-y5--5-Debian1#

... but is that the default prompt? I just commented out the 'PS1' line 
above.

I see that 'Test/B06fc.ztest' was changed. I pulled in the copy from 
5.0.7, and the
error disappears. That's with my usual environment.
