`popd' is blocked on non-existent directory

Under zsh 3.0.0, if a directory in the directory stack is removed, popd
seems to get "blocked". In 2.5, the non-existent directory would just be
removed from the stack. Here's what happens:
1175 kontiki%> dirs -v ~/elisp
0 ~/elisp
1 ~/elisp/foo
2 ~/elisp/foo/tm
3 ~Sputnik/sdtmail
1176 kontiki%> ~/elisp
1176 kontiki%> popd ~/elisp
popd: no such file or directory: /space/jsc/elisp/foo
1177 kontiki%> dirs -v ~/elisp
0 ~/elisp
1 ~/elisp/foo
2 ~/elisp/foo/tm
3 ~Sputnik/sdtmail
1178 kontiki%> ~/elisp
I'm now unable to pop the stack back past the non-existent "~/elisp/foo"
directory. I know I can `cd -3' but it would be much better to have the
non-existent stuff cleaned out of the stack.
Is there a way to get the old behavior, i.e. have all non-existent
directories removed from the stack?
Also, when there's only one entry left on the dir stack, (I think) a popd
used to remove it and pop me to my home directory. This is no longer the
case in 3.0.0 .
Thanks,
--- John.
