The bug still persists when _store_cache is called from completion
system functions (this is how I tracked down _store_cache), and I believe 
that the bug can be easily reproduced.

Please consider this:

$ rm -rf ~/.zcomp*
$ zsh
$ emulate -R zsh
$ zstyle ':completion::complete:*' use-cache 1
$ perl -M<TAB>
zsh: do you wish to see all 1917 possibilities (959 lines)? n
$ head -c70 ~/.zcompcache/perl_modules; echo
_perl_modules=( 'AcidRip::acidrip' 'AcidRip::interface' 'AcidRip::sign
$ rm -rf ~/.zcomp*
$ zsh
$ emulate -R zsh
$ setopt KSH_TYPESET MAGIC_EQUAL_SUBST
$ zstyle ':completion::complete:*' use-cache 1
$ perl -M<TAB>
zsh: do you wish to see all 1917 possibilities (959 lines)? n
$ head -c70 ~/.zcompcache/perl_modules; echo
_perl_modules=( 'AcidRip::acidrip AcidRip::interface AcidRip::signals
