compiling and testing zsh 3.0.0, i think i might have found a real
coredump.
try this (don't ask me why! ;-):
% test zsh -gt 0
this pauses a bit, and then dumps core. i haven't had any luck
looking at it with gdb; i think it might be overflowing the stack, but
i'm not sure.
if i put any other string there besides `zsh', i haven't been able to
reproduce. zsh is magic? who knows. (and don't ask me why i did
this -- it's silly).
this is on solaris 2.5 (sparc). let me know if i can provide any more
info, or run `reporter', or whatever.

It doesn't do anything on Linux 2.0.10/ELF libc 5.3.12. OTOH, the
bindkey -v ... ESC ESC sequence does drop core for me.

The way the `test' builtin is written, this is (almost) the same as writing
test $zsh -gt 0
