Just as a datapoint, I can't reproduce this:

  $ ~/bin/sunos-5.5/zsh -f
  % echo $ZSH_VERSION
  2.6-beta17
  % setopt correct
  % setopt promptsubst
  % ks
  zsh: Does ks mean ls [nyae]? a
  % uname -a
  SunOS roberts 5.5 Generic_103093-02 sun4m sparc SUNW,SPARCstation-20
  %

compiled with SUNWspro cc-4.0.
