Is there a possibility that (a) you copy-pasted the URL into the command
line (b) you have self-insert bound to the url-quote-magic function and
(c) your distro version of zsh is using a recent development snapshot
that has the bracketed-paste widgets enabled, so url-quote-magic doesn't
work for pasted text any more?

Yes, that's fine.  I just copied the function without editing it when I
wrote my previous reply, didn't even notice you had noglob in there.
