Definitely :-(
Here is a stack trace without gettext in it:

A deadlock with free() this time.
Here is more information about how to reproduce these deadlocks:
Download a snapshot of gsh:
http://repo.or.cz/w/gsh.git?a=snapshot;h=9a90d28f9ad0e64c45202522b26ff6c13f10f795;sf=tgz
Run this loop:
while : ; do ./gsh.py --command=: localhost localhost localhost; done
This assumes that running 'ssh localhost' will lead you to a Zsh
instance. This should accumulate deadlocked Zsh processes that you can
see with: pstree -a -h -p -u $USER|grep '^zsh,'|cut -d, -f2
I don't think it's the first time I saw hung Zsh processes, but this
commit in my gsh software made the problem appears more easily:
http://repo.or.cz/w/gsh.git?a=commitdiff;h=9a90d28f9ad0e64c45202522b26ff6c13f10f795
It replaces builtin echo invocations with actual /bin/echo forkings.
Hope that helps.
