} Now for the bug:  If the ${pref}CVS/Entries file exists, all of this

} subsitution prints a newline to the terminal -- which messes up zle.

} Where is that newline coming from?

} !     reply=($(for f in \
} ! 		"${${${(f@)$({<${pref}CVS/Entries} 2>/dev/null)}#/}%%/*}" \
} !     		do echo $pref$f; done)
} ! 	   ${pref}*/**/CVS(:h))

There's one too many backslashes in the above.  Take out the one just
before the "do".  With that backslash removed, everything works as
intended.  I still don't know why the extra newline is going straight
to the terminal, but this works:

    reply=($(for f in \
		"${${${(f@)$({<${pref}CVS/Entries} 2>/dev/null)}#/}%%/*}"
		do echo $pref$f; done)
	   ${pref}*/**/CVS(:h))
