Nope, I still can't get it to work correctly.

gizmo:~> zsh-3.1.2-zefram3/Src/zsh -f
gizmo% echo $ZSH_VERSION
3.1.2-zefram3

I then pasted in the above `cd' compctl defintion, and pasted in the
`cdmatch' function. Exact same bahavior:

gizmo% cd T<tab>
Test\\\ -\\\ abc     Test\\\ -\\\ ghi
Test\\\ -\\\ def     Trouble\\\ -\\\ abc
gizmo% cd Tr<tab> -> cd Trouble\\\ -\\\ abc/
cd: no such file or directory: Trouble\ -\ abc/
gizmo% cd ./Tr<tab> -> cd ./Trouble\ -\ abc/

My 3.1.2-zefram3 has patches 3713, 3714 and 3739 applied. But I get the
same behavior described above under zsh-3.0.2 as well.
