As I was planning to queue Matthieu's patch as-is as a regression fix
before v1.7.9-rc2, I would appreciate if you can clarify this report a
bit. Do you mean with the patch more recent versions of zsh still does not
like the workaround and adds quoted space at the end?
I am saying I am seeing the issue (or at least the same symptom) even
before a31e626 with recent zsh versions. I will try a patched version
of the script and a31e626, but I'm guessing the result would be the
same.
OK, so the issue the patch addresses may not be a regression in the
upcoming v1.7.9 we want to fix quickly, but if you tried the patch we
might see improvements, or we might not see any improvements.
I'll hold onto Matthieu's patch for now, then. It would be nice to get
this minor detail fixed before the release, though, as any fix would be
of limited scope, affecting zsh users for which it is already broken.
Thanks.
