} The patch below fixes the problem by making zerr() set errflag
} independent of the setting of noerrs. I am far from knowing if this
} should go there (or in paramsubst() or in prefork(), or in...).

I notice this patch isn't in pws-11.  Is it made irrelevant by the new
completion stuff?  If not, can anyone think of a way to test whether
it's the right thing to do WRT not breaking other uses of zerr() ?

Here it is again so you don't have to search the archives:
