The variables reappear after assigning them and contain previous values:

# unfunction -m \*
# myf() { echo "test"; }; echo $parameters[functions]; unset
functions; functions=( a b c d ); echo $parameters[functions]; echo
${#functions}
association-hide-hideval-special
association-hide-hideval-special
3
# echo ${(k)functions}
a c myf

Three entries, after adding two with functions=( a b c d ).
