While wondering about this I noticed that this is a timing issue:

 zsh -c 'sleep 1000 & print $!; sleep 0.1s; kill $!'

works fine. And for the rest of the test hangs I just disabled zpty for now
and only real bug I have is with the A05 one now. Better than a hanging
testsuite :-)

Thanks a lot! (I mean it, I know how painful Windows can be.)
