Zsh eats 100% CPU on a colleague's laptop if you do this: % cd / % cd .. % ./ Happens with the most recent CVS HEAD, too. That's on linux (debian stable, actually). The problem is reproducible on his machine. And it doesn't happen if you do this: % cd / % ./ The 'cd ..' is required. I cannot reproduce the problem on my system with exactly the same configuration and with exactly the same zsh version. And I am in fact using the very same OS (debian stable), too. As you can imagine, I am quite puzzled and I don't know how to tackle this. Any hints or suggestions are highly welcome. Regards, Frank
