Hrm.  I can't think of any reason, offhand, for that failure.  The output
you quoted would indicate that it's behaving as if BSD_ECHO is always on.

}     Maybe PTY handling is the problem, but if I run the test as you
} say, the test is indeed more verbose but hangs anyway :( It stops at:
} 
}     comptestinit -z $ZTST_testdir/../Src/zsh &&
[...]
}     Don't know why 'comptestinit' stops there :??

It could be a problem with globbing to initialize the fpath, but it's
far more likely that the zpty module is hanging it.

}     BTW, I have /dev/ptmx AND /dev/ptyp? so the test shouldn't fail
} even if zsh thinks I don't have the PTY multiplexer :?

If it were a problem with _finding_ the PTY, you wouldn't even get as
far as hanging.  I'd suspect a problem with actually reading or writing
the PTY.

As what user are you testing?
