PATH handling broken in zsh 3.1.4



Hi!

I just noticed, that zsh *ignores* empty fields in
'path' (created via 'PATH') instead of implying a 'dot'.

'csh' does: setenv PATH bla:
            echo $path
            bla .

'zsh' ignores the trailing colon, and even drops colons when using
'vared PATH' on a Path containig empty fields. Like:
'export PATH=bla::bla'; vared path
bla  bla
   ^^         there _was_ the 'implied dot' :-)
