The following chunk of code in guess-where around line 201 is triggering:
it's looking for glob qualifiers. We need a test that the parentheses
aren't quoted; we could have '()' or "()" or $'()' or \(\), or some
mixture, possibly with text in between. There is a slightly better test
higher up, around line 17 (which correctly didn't trigger): that's newer
code that I added when completing glob qualifiers. (The chunk of code
below isn't completing them, it's trying to ensure they get applied.)
Possibly copying the newer test here or putting it into a separate function
would help, but I will wait for any cries of enlightenment before I do
anything.
It would be quite nice to have a test for the shell to decide "is character
N in this command line argument a token or a metacharacter?" which isn't so
much more than the context lex horrors already do... I suppose
parse-partial-sexp is out of the question.

"$SUFFIX" = (|*[^\$])\([^\|\~]##\) ) ]]; then
# Copy all glob qualifiers from the line to
# the patterns used when generating matches
if [[ "$SUFFIX" = *\([^\|\~]##\) ]]; then
tmp3="${${(M)SUFFIX%\([^\|\~]##\)}[2,-2]}"
SUFFIX="${SUFFIX%\($tmp3\)}"
