I forgot to list changes since v4:

 - new commit message
 - removed comment I considered unclear --- probably the following
   should be squashed in, though, to prevent someone from seeing the
   seemingly redundant "typeset -h words" and removing it, not
   realizing it is needed for compatibility with old zsh versions.
