Huh. Well, the thing I though it was, was fixed in debian package
version 4.3.11-4; and that's what 4.3.11-4ubuntu* should be based
upon. :-/

Are you sure the zsh you're running is the the one from the binary
(ie. you didn't upgrade it lately). If you're unsure, please do

  % exec zsh

...and retry.

If that still doesn't fix it, please try removing all aliases by doing
this:

  % for i in ${(k)aliases}; do unalias $i; done

If that still doesn't fix it... ...then I'm running out of ideas.

Regards, Frank
