See: https://www.zsh.org/mla/workers/2002/msg00158.html
A04redirect.ztst still has:
print foo >&-
0:'>&-' redirection
(exec >&-
print foo)
0:'>&-' with attempt to use closed fd
*?\(eval\):2: write error:*
That is "print" with stdout explicitely closed meant to return
success and report no error message, but "print foo" without
explicit closing outputs an error (but exit status still 0).
So it seems to work as intended, though I'm not sure what the
rationale is for that intended behaviour.
