A lot of the time you won't have the path to the zsh binary; it will often just
be the base name:

  % print $ZSH_ARGZERO
  zsh

Even when you have a path you might need to deal with symlinks, &c. On mine
sometimes i'll have /usr/local/bin/zsh and other times it'll have been resolved
to /usr/local/Cellar/zsh/x.y.z/bin/zsh.

If the problem is ZSH_ARGZERO, shouldn't this work in like 5.0+?

  () {
    setopt local_options posix_argzero
    MY_ARGZERO=$0
  }
