This seems to be a false positive:

    % zsh -fc 'setopt warn_create_global; (){ x=y =true }'
    (anon): scalar parameter x created globally in function

Regression test attached.  I'm less sure about the patch, but it seems to
work and is unlikely to break anything other than WARN_CREATE_GLOBAL.

It looks plausible.  "forked" is a local variable in execcmd() saying we
forked to execute whatever it is, so it indicates the variable can't
leak from the current command context.  ADVAR_RESTORE is only a signal
to quieten the warning (it could be better named; the name comes from
the other time it's set rather than it's real purpose).  So it certainly
looks better than before.

Thanks
