:The documentation (3.1.0) says that "Commands are first read from

:"init.c" shows that each startup file from /etc is read only if the
:appropriate #define is set (GLOBAL_ZSHENV, GLOBAL_ZPROFILE etc), but
:none is set by default. On the other hand, the INSTALL file (if I got it
:right) says that one has to explicitely _disable_ processing of a
:scriptfile by adding the option --disable-scriptname to 'configure',
:which suggests that GLOBAL_scriptname is set by default.
Unless you specify otherwise when you run configure, they're all set by
default in config.h . configure checks for --disable-whatever and
--enable-whatever=pathname and if it finds neither it will give you defaults.
:What is the intention?
As it is.
:I'd prefer an implementation of the documented default behaviour.
It is. What exactly leads you to believe they're unset by default?
