I do not use zsh myself, but it appears to me that these three-patch
series can graduate and if real zsh users find problems after using it
they can be fixed independenty in-tree.

Would that risk too many patch ping-pong among zsh users on 'master'?
The "don't declare 'local words' in zsh" patch seems to be the right
work-around for the peculiar semantics of "words" array, at least to me.
