Yes, my mistake.  I blindly whacked -n on the echo.

:% ( local foo; set -A foo {1..10} ; print $foo )
:% ( local foo; print ${(A)foo::={1..10}} )
:Handle it, without the trailing space of another suggestion.
:I wanted:
:% print ${(A)_::={1..10}}
:which would nicely leave $_ with the values, but _ is a readonly
:variable.  *sigh*

Either way, you're not left with only one option.
