beta21; Bug in execcmd() and job text question

[Thorsten Meinecke <kaefer@aglaia.snafu.DE>]

1) Whoa!

  % ls =()
  zsh: parse error in process substitution
  zsh: segmentation fault  ../../zsh-RCS-b21/Src/zsh -f

This happens in getjobtext(), after the argument of the command was
nuked in prefork().

2) I can see why getjobtext() was moved behind prefork() by the recent
reconstruction in this area.  But why can't the original, that is unsub-
stituted job text be kept when the command was a simple command?  For
example, no problem with this...

 % setopt shwordsplit; foo="sleep 10"
 % $foo& jobs
 [1] 850
 [1]  + running    sleep 10

...but wouldn't it be better to say `eval $foo' in the example below?

 % eval $foo& jobs
 [1] 884
 [1]  + running    eval sleep 10

Unless I'm missing something obvious, the patch below might fix both.
