open("/etc/zsh/zshenv", O_RDONLY|O_NOCTTY|O_LARGEFILE) = 3

open("/tmp/login-trace", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_TRUNC|O_NOCTTY|O_LARGEFILE,

ioctl(2, SNDCTL_TMR_TIMEBASE, 0xbffff8d8) = -1 ENOTTY (Inappropriate 
ioctl for device)

fd 2 does not look like tty, does it? I presume you do exec > 
/tmp/login-trace very early in your /etc/zshenv

Still there is something weird going on:

write(10, "\r\33[m\33[m\33[m\33[J\n\33[1;30m[ \33[1;37mlc"..., 270) = 270
write(10, "\33[K", 3)                   = 3
read(10, "l", 1)                        = 1
write(10, "l", 1)                       = 1
read(10, "s", 1)                        = 1
write(10, "\10ls", 3)                   = 3
read(10, "syJ\10\10\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\240G\f\10\0\0\0\0\1\0\0\0\0\0"..., 
1) = 1025

Oops. Where does this last line comes from?
