Yes, such issues were reported, last confirmed 4 days ago:

Okay, and what could z-sy-h do about this?  The redrawhook branch fixes a *lot*
of bugs, so I'm not eager to make it optional.  I suppose I could just tell
people who use both plugins to stick to z-sy-h 0.7.0 (as opposed to master)
until there's a z-asug release that uses «add-zle-hook-widget
zle-line-pre-redraw» too — or is there a better solution that I'm overlooking?

I'm not overly concerned about this.  Anyone who uses z-sy-h from master should
_expect_ to live on the bleeding edge.  Anyone who's not ready to live on the
bleeding edge should stick to tags (or, at least, follow master with an N days'
delay, so any issues will be ironed out before they get to it).

And how does this affect z-sy-h?
