May I suggest naming the function something else?  «egrep foo»
should interpret foo as an extended regular expression; this function
doesn't.

As to propagating configure's EGREP to ztst.zsh: propagating a single
variable should be straightforward enough, but what about cross builds?
configure runs on the build host and the test suite necessarily runs on
the target host.

Cheers,

Daniel
