OK: 1.5256

under Debian.

But the same problem occurs with Debian's 4.3.11 zsh package.

Same problem with:

  autoload -U compinit
  compinit

I can't reproduce the problem either under Mac OS X. And I can't

I've looked at Debian's patches for the zsh package, but I don't
see anything related to the problem here.
