This (z)sh is weird, I'm telling you.

OK, here's the result from /bin/sh (zsh 3.0.8)

	1.
	{dummy}
	{arg1}
	{arg 2}
	{arg
	3}
	2.
	{dummy}
	{arg1}
	{arg}
	{2}
	{arg}
	{3}
	3.
	{dummy}
	{arg1}
	{arg}
	{2}
	{arg}
	{3}

The newer zsh (4.0.4) and bash both give:

	1.
	{dummy}
	{arg1}
	{arg 2}
	{arg
	3}
	2.
	{dummy}
	{arg1}
	{arg 2}
	{arg
	3}
	3.
	{dummy}
	{arg1}
	{arg 2}
	{arg
	3}
