3.1.6-dev-18

[Peter Stephenson <pws@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have uploaded
  ftp://ftp.zsh.org/zsh/development/zsh-3.1.6-dev-18.tar.gz

This now *does* include zpty, despite possible configuration problems, and
I haven't yet got around to implementing --exclude-modules in configure.
It omits a couple of make patches from Adam (i.e. even the latest versions
of same) about which there were quibbles.

Beta testers not following everything in detail should notice that
$compmatchers has been replaced by a completer and a style.  Namely, to do

compmatchers=(blah1 blah2 ...)

instead do

zstyle ':completion:*' completer _matcher ....
zstyle ':completion:*' matcher blah1 blah2 ...

(see the docs for more).
