This is basically a dead issue now, but trying it is exactly what I did:
% alias X='echo howdy'; Y() { X }
zsh: defining function based on alias `Y'
zsh: parse error near `()'
... but maybe that's not exactly the same thing. I just noticed the
same messages.
BTW, interesting that his problem was solved by adding 'function' -- I
though that was always optional, but in this case the parser seems to care.
