Re: case $? fails

} while has the same problem unfortunately.  Similarily
} for ((i=$?;;)) do echo $i; break; done
} prints zero.  The patch below fixes these.  The for syntax is new in
} zsh-3.1 so the first two hunks should be removed if the patch is applied
} against zsh-3.0.3-test4.

Here's what I came up with as a patch for 3.0.3-test4 by manually applying
the patch from Zoltan.  I *did* include the first two hunks (with one
additional change that moved the increment of the "loops" counter, to
match the context in the patch) -- so this patch may be flawed.

Can somebody tell me if this patch is correct?  Or have I broken something
that I haven't encountered yet?
