I did a bit more digging, and discovered that it's actually compiler
related.  We build vte with Studio 12.3, but if I build with gcc 4.8, the
problem goes away.  The problem exists with newer versions of Studio as
well.  I don't know yet whether this is a compiler bug or some weird header
or standards mode interaction.  But it's not a zsh bug.  :)
