ARGV0=sh zsh -fexc 'testerrexit() { return 1; }; false || echo simplecommand; testerrexit || echo function'; echo $?

does this

+ false
+ echo simplecommand
simplecommand
+ testerrexit
+ return 1
1

Other shells seems to do this

ARGV0=sh ksh -fexc 'testerrexit() { return 1; }; false || echo simplecommand; te
sterrexit || echo function'; echo $?

+ false
+ echo simplecommand
simplecommand
+ testerrexit
+ echo function
function
0


zsh should conform at least in emulation modes.
