This would need to be escaped using a backslash at the beginning:
ssh -F ssh_config2 \-test-.foo.bar

The insertion of "BR" does not happen with "zsh -f" though. It is
caused by matcher-list zstyle setting in my config: 'r:|[._-]=*'
My full setting (based on the one from oh-my-zsh):
zstyle ':completion:*' matcher-list '' 'm:{[:lower:]}={[:upper:]}' \
'm:{[:upper:]}={[:lower:]}' 'r:|[._-]=* r:|=*' 'l:|=* r:|=*'
While looking at it, it seems like 'r:|[._-]=* r:|=*' is redundant, but
the "COMPLETION MATCHING CONTROL" section in zshcompwid(1) is not really
trivial.
For some other reason I cannot reproduce the issue of "BR" being
inserted when using ssh_config2 with "zsh -f" just by using the same
matcher-list zstyle config.
