Hm, this diverges from the behavior of (m)ksh and (soon) bash:
% cat ./nofork_test; echo
echo "$KSH_VERSION$BASH_VERSION$ZSH_PATCHLEVEL"
foo=${ echo abc; }
typeset -p foo
% ksh ./nofork_test; echo
Version AJM 93u+ 2012-08-01
foo=abc
% mksh ./nofork_test; echo
@(#)MIRBSD KSH R59 2020/10/31
typeset foo=abc
% Reference/bash/bash ./nofork_test; echo
5.3.0(2)-devel
declare -- foo="abc"
% zsh/zsh/Src/zsh ./nofork_test
zsh-5.9-342-gdde1259
typeset foo=$'abc\n'
If this is intentional, then it might be worth mentioning in the
FAQ, to warn users who are used to the other behavior.
