Hrm.  This must have something to do with TIOCGWINSZ not being defined
on that platform and something causing re-entry into adjustwinsize(),
but I don't have a FreeBSD system to test on and I can't tell whether
it's a recursive call or simply that we've created an infinite series
of SIGWINCH somehow.

Staring at the code in adjustwinsize() makes me suspect the SIGWINCH,
as improbable as that seems.

Can you reproduce this with "zsh -f"?  If not, what are the values of
your PS1 and RPS1 parameters?
