In the following code, I expected the exit status to be 1.
However, in zsh 5.0.3 and later, it was actually 0.

$ zsh -c '[ ! -o ]; echo "$ZSH_VERSION: $?"'
4.3.17: 1
$ zsh -c '[ ! -o ]; echo "$ZSH_VERSION: $?"'
5.0.0: 1
$ zsh -c '[ ! -o ]; echo "$ZSH_VERSION: $?"'
5.0.2: 1
$ zsh -c '[ ! -o ]; echo "$ZSH_VERSION: $?"' # <===
5.0.3: 0
$ zsh -c '[ ! -o ]; echo "$ZSH_VERSION: $?"'
5.8: 0

I checked the release notes, and it does not appear to be
an intentional change.


In other latest shells, it is as expected.
$ dash -c '[ ! -o ]; echo $?'
1
$ bash -c '[ ! -o ]; echo $?'
1
$ ksh -c '[ ! -o ]; echo $?'
1
$ yash -c '[ ! -o ]; echo $?'
1

It's a little bizarre that we've actually got a test for this, and it's
deliberately set up this way.  But I think the fix for this case is simple
— more complicated expressions with "test" or "[", as opposed to "[[", can
go horribly wrong, but two arguments should be OK — so I've just flipped
the test.  It can't possibly be right that -a and -o are treated differently
in this context, can it?

I've assumed this is uncontroversial, which I think it is, and submitted this.
I'm guessing the test just got set up to reflect the status quo rather than
some deeper (but bizarre) thinking.
